Hey, well for some reason, my last post... well, didn't post...
Good point. I ment better painters as in you said that your painters dropped your computer XD! Can I pretty pretty pretty please be an Alpha tester? If you get the home computer with say 2GB of RAM and 200 GB Hard Drive, wouldn't it be good enough?
Yeah, Blksprt's painters were pretty careless... good paint job though... (at least) well, they're finished, now we only have to watch out for builders, electricians, carpet layers, wallpaperers (is that a word?) etc...
Your name has been added to my ever-growing list of Alpha Testers.
Current and prospective Alpha Testers, please note:
We will only be accepting Alpha Testers which are signed up in our forum (link in my sig) this is because we can add you all to a group and mass email/PM you about where to get a testing client. If you are already signed up, please PM me your PTOA forums Username.

Yes, we currently are using a computer with 80GB HDD and 512MB RAM. It can (just) handle it, so possibly we could get a computer (like blksprt's new one) with 300GB HDD and 2GB RAM...
2 gigs of RAM is way more than people need and I believe the CPU is what makes the majority of speed. RAM does factor in it though.
Yes, RAM does factor in, as if the RAM keeps filling up, the CPU will not be working to its capacity. Also, 2GB RAM is probably what we would be focussing on as we dont want the game to slow down as more and more users are online.
Thought about booting Debian or some other Linux distro as a server?
Well, we would like to, but we have to use windows server 2003 or windows XP for our (very fast) data transfer, so that kinda stuffs that idea.
and before I finish, these people are currently signed up to be testers, please PM me your PTOA forums username if you wish to be kept on our list.
