Yeah, it is old. And I lugged it and the LCD monitor all the way from Japan from my wife's parent's house. After all the work of carrying it here I have to use it for something. So you think it would only work as a play by mail server then? I am planning on running it as a text only server so I'm hoping it can host decent sized games and I was hoping tcp/ip would work as I do have a fast network connection.

I would be surprised if your 512kb connection couldn't handle an 8 player game. I wouldn't think this game would be that bandwith intensive.
