This is the wrong list to discuss anything except DNS.  Are you planning
on running your own DNS, or are you planning on having it hosted for
you?

If you're planning on running Bind as your own DNS server, then we can
help you with specific questions for that <smile>.

It depends on your computer, the quality of your power and your power
supply, the cooling inside your case.

You might have enough RAM to run a nonrecursive nameserver.  I don't
think you've got enough RAM or horsepower to run any other services,
especially not under Windows.  You'll need to hand tune a current Linux
distribution to run on a system with so little in the way of resources.
