  21. This isn't really a feasable use for Amiga.  There's too much data, and
  22. Amiga is too unreliable.

  24. While it is a good computer, Amiga systems probably shouldn't be used where
  25. mission-critical reliability is an issue.
  26.  
  27. If you want to run an IRC server, you should probably invest in a real
  28. computer.
