Yes, but of course that depends on *lots* of factors.  If you can estimate
pages per day, MB per day, describe the amount and complexity of scripting
and db usage and give other details it would be easier to suggest whether
you're going to have problems.

Impossible to say.  Traffic and scripts on sites can vary greatly.  I can
tell you that a client's RaQ4 with 512MB of RAM has 4 or 5 sites that
consist primarily of pure HTML pages that represent about 80% of the traffic
on the server and another 100 sites with moderate PHP scripting, CGI and DB
usage and the server handles 400 GB of traffic per month.  Before they
doubled their RAM I am told the server was sluggish and having problems.

cobalt-users is the main list.  cobalt-security is for security issues.
