That is light years faster than my old P-133 that I had running the BBS.  

It was odd to look at my "network room" and see these Core2
3.2Ghz systems with USB connections, etc and then see the P-133 with no
USB, a fat keyboard connector and a turbo button on the case.  It started
to be very out of place.. :)  

The other reason I went the VM route was I wanted to somehow future proof
the BBS where it wouldn't be tied to particular hardware anymore.  

I still think it is cool that I can quickly move my (2) BBS VMs from one
machine to another in a matter of minutes and have them up and running
again.

Currently, they are sharing the same physical system as what runs my webserver.
