Graphics card doesn't matter when hosting. RAM and Processor does, and of course internet speeds. A 4mb upload is very good.

Depends on the size of the server really, playing and hosting on the same PC is never really a good idea, as higher specs are needed, which equals more money. What sort of budget were you looking at?

Should be fine, but you MIGHT want to upgrade your RAM to 1gb, just to make sure the server will run smoothly :)

With 512 it won't be fine. Mobs will lag. About 512 is needed for the server itself, and another 512 for the ledu client.

Urban is there any point maxing out your memory to 4GB? (I heard no one program can utilise all this... but since its the max XP can support, won't it be preferable to have it o.O?)
