I can't imagine connection speed being that big an issue these days. I have 1500 down and 256 up and one phone call and ten dollars a month more could make that up speed match the downlink speed. I'd like to experiment w/ running two maybe three machines (probably old p-400s from surplus at work) running zones and an active/active win2k adv server cluster with athlon 2000+ cpu's and a gig o' ram per node running the eqemu server app. If I can get that config to work, then I can seriously start to talk about some legimate hosting.
The only problem I really foresee is the shared drive and the quorum drive, since I can't really set up a true scsi array at home unless I find a really good deal on ebay or something.
