Herzog is running on a

Duron 800Mhz
384MB PC133 Ram
20GB 7200 RPM IDE ATA100
Windows XP Professional
Geforce 2 MX 32

768k / 768k DSL Connection (ATM encapsulated)

640k/640k real world throughput

I can host 12 broadband users without a hitch, 14 and I get lag if everyone is broadband. Sprinkle in a couple of dialup users and I could host 16 without a problem.

Figure 30k up and down for each broadband user. The server doesn't take very much ram - 40-50MB max, but it'll need a fast cpu, motherboard, and hard drive to keep everything from chugging.

I found that the server lagged when I had an ISA video card installed, so I swapped it out for the GF2MX AGP card.

Server:
Herzog - No Complaining
Uptime: 32 Days straight (last month, brought down to change locations)
