I am new to the web designer scene. I am in the process of developing a site using Dreamweaver MX 2004. I have two options for machines to host as a webserver.
Option 1:
1) CPU: AMD Athlon 2000+
2) Memory: Crucial 512MB (2x256MB) PC2100
3) HDD: Western Digital 80GB SE
4) NIC: Nvidia 10/100 (onboard)
5) Bandwidth: 1.5Mbps down / 384Mbps up
6) OS: Windows XP Pro - using the built in IIS
Option 2:
1) CPU: Celeron
2) Memory: 160MB (1x128MB / 1x32MB) PC66
3) HDD: 4GB
4) NIC: 3Com 10/100
5) Bandwidth: 1.5Mbps down / 384Mbps up
6) OS: ClarkConnect Home Edition (Customized RedHat Linux 9)
My question is....Can Option 2 host a small website just starting out? I mean by small is probably no more than 50-100 hits a day and very little pics, no multimedia stuff, mostly text with CSS. Thanks in advance.
