[mohaa] System requirements

[Michael Rieder]

so i think a server with 16 players and one with 4 players would could run
together on a 1 GHz Duron, 256 MB SDRAM. i must think about this, because
i'd like to have a CS server, too. and not to forget, i need a webserver for
multiple domains..
thanks for your help, if you get more information about CPU and RAM usage,
please post them here :)
