Dear Quake Newgroup, I was just wondering what kind of power would it take to run a Quake server for 5 or 10 telephone lines? Would a P90 be enough? Please mention the RAM requirements and other accesories that might be required. I am interested in starting my own server, because the board I play Doom 2 on goes rather slow when it has many BBS users on, I feel that the speed would increase on a bigger system handling fewer lines. Will id software be making software for Quake servers? If so will it be shareware? Also will I be able to play from the main computer, and possibley build things for the users? I know this is rather early to be asking a question like this, but it will take me time to accumulate the caladeral for so many lines, and a P90 computer. Thank you, /\S|</\|\|]['S S()|\| P.S. Also, is there anymore information on Strife?
