256 MB is fine for most workstations. And even for a lot of different
server implementations it would be fine.  Heck, most of my workstations
have 256MB or less, my firewall/DNS/DHCP/SQUID server only has 96MB
it is a single CPU P120, and it does great.

What are you trying to do with this server?
What services or daemons are you going to run?

That was just an example I was giving...  Sometimes you have server that
is running a daemon that does reverse lookups on the IP addresses of
clients that access the server.  Normally this is no problem whatsoever,
unless you have a daemon that is getting more than a few hits per second
from LOTS of different clients.
