Look that's all good and fine if you have like 10 users on your system but
for anything that is going to grow you need something bigger. DO you know
how much resources SQL can hog up? You need to have AT LEAST 128 megs of ram
just for IT to run smoothly. Common sense here is all I am saying. In the
future when the server blows up because you have problems don't say you were
not warned. Just trying to give some good advice that's all.When you try to
take care of it your headache is going to be large I can tell you that.
Would you like me to send you some asprin??? hehe :)

have to operate this way. And if things are working fine, why spend the
money on the server and co-location fees.
