lol, show off! well i actually stand by a lower limit i hit on my XP with 3.7 gig of RAM and 2 core CPU - 100,000 - i think that is a reasonable thing for regular people to aspire to (and to build to! that's a lot of prims!)
actually, i'd say the biggest benefit for users and potential users is that it's safe to say you can do 15,000 prims on OpenSim on a stick or your own machine24 gig of RAM? if i had that kind of money i would be messing with real islands, not OpenSim ones! =pbut congrats and if i did not give away everything i do for free, i might have 24 gigs too! (me jealous? more like salivating at Bernd's PC!!!) =)
