Hey folks,

I'm thinking about getting a dedicated server. I currently have two reseller accounts for hosting and, as great as the plans are, I'm a little concerned about the space and my pricing scheme. My plans are fairly low, I look to make profit off quantity instead of quality, so to say.

I'm thinking about grabbing the first dedicated plan, and maybe hosting a few dedicated game servers as well as my web host accounts to help cover, if not pay for the cost of the dedicated.

I'm interestd in Counter Strike, Battlefield and possibly Battlefield: Vietnam, and Quake 3 Arena dedicateds. I checked some server hosting requirments and from what I could find, most are substantial off 256mb of ram and less than a gig of processor power.

About how many dedicated servers you think I could host on the standard Intel Celeron 1.7Ghz 400Mhz Bus server? Keep in mind that I will try and host sites from it as well if possible. Those two terabytes and 80gigs are quite tempting...

Thanks in advanced
