    Actually, web sites that cannot stand Slashdotting are badly designed. Ace's Hardware survived a Slashdotting using a single ~500MHz UltraSPARC II server, running Java no less.

    I think people just don't realize how powerful even an ancient CPU is at pushing data, when it isn't running GNOME. Think about it, whole companies ran data centers on systems less powerful than a $400 PC not twenty years ago.
