Intel 815 integrated video graphics, Pentium III 800Mhz processor, ATA100
30Gb hard drive and 3COM 3C905c integrated NIC and 512Mb RAM.  Very bog
standard stuff.  Hasn't given me any problems in the past.  I've thrown
OpenBSD 3.0 at it, FreeBSD 4.4 at it, Solaris 8 (Intel) at it with no
problems whatsoever.  All with X-Windows running, I've not had any
stability problems.

I should also mention I'm using XFree 4.1.0 and KDE 2.2.2 also supplied
via Red Hat's up2date.  I'm also making quite extensive use of VMWare
Workstation 3.0.

Regards,
