I have a question that may seem stupid to you all, but bear with me if
you can. Currently I'm running a Duron 750 MhZ (or somewhere around
there) and only 370 MB RAM. I'm about to do a huge upgrade of my system
to an Athlon 64 3700+ (2.4 Ghz) with 1 GB RAM. I'm running Linux on my
system. I wanted to take this old system and run it as a sort of
firewall/router using OpenBSD. Will having this old system in that
capicity slow down my main computer when accessing the internet? Linux
will be what I use most of the time except when I boot up WinXP to play
something online. Also, where is a good resource to learn how to get
this kind of setup going? Thank you for your help.
