Great Questions!!

Server:
Currently I'm sitting on Dell Dual Single 1Gb Xeon Processors.  4Gb of ram.
The server has 2 raided HD for the OS and 10 high-speed raided drives for
the Data folder.  These are all SCSI drives and while they perform great,
they'll be hard to replace.  I have 2 or 3 PCI slots available.

I have cable from comcast here in Atlanta Georgia.  I'm planning on
purchasing the scheduling service I'd read about for $20/year.
