How big is the hard drive? Let me rephrase that - just make sure the disk
space is enough to hold what you need.

How many users do you have? How many of them will be trying to access the
repository at the same time? If you have a lot of users potentially
accessing the server at the same time, you'll need to consider RAM and
network throughput (our server is a Sun/Sparc with a 1000BaseT fiber-optic
link to the network switch; I forget how much RAM it has).

The memory seems a little low - then again, maybe I'm used to the bloat
required by Windows. You will need enough RAM to load the largest file in
your repository (the ,v file) into memory. If you're dealing with huge
files, then 240M may not be enough.
