We posed the question to Gabe Newell, founder of Valve... HL2World:Can you give me some specs on recommended minimum requirements for a dedicated server [running Source engine based games]? Gabe Newell:They are basically the same. There's more information going across the wire but the protocol is more efficient so it ends up being a wash(about 2.4 Kbps per client if I remember correctly).

I have a dead monitor! It was only a 17 inch monitor that I paid $300 bux for in 1998. Truth is, I can't believe it lasted this long for a no name (KDS) cheapy (for that time). I'm looking for another cheapy 17" monitor for the kids' computer since that desk doesn't have much room on it. Does anybody have any cheap ideas?
