For whatever it's worth, we have a Nokia IP530 handling about 1,000 users,
although that's the total and there's usually a couple of hundred
concurrent, with 3 Mbps of Internet bandwidth. We also run 300 users of
SecureClient. The IP530 is a 700 MHz Pentium-III and I stuck 1 GB or RAM in
it. I'd say that anything you buy that's new is going to be fine as long as
you don't skimp on the memory.
