Hi Nebadon, Thanks for your info, it's really shedding light on this issue. I might not of explained what I am after in detail. I am not looking to run 1 sim, I am looking to run multiple sims that will handle the load of 800 users. I do not know how to make those sims (not regions I know how to make the xml file and make another island) but the server side software connect together on one machine to handle the load. To make that type of grid, does anyone know where we could actually obtain those servers? Regarding asset storage, we do not anticipate the students really doing anything except for coming into this area and meet with their teachers for a presentation. Let me know what you guys think, as I am trying to find the best solution for the school. Thanks!
