I have a website, and I want to host it on my own computer, but I'm wondering if it's good enough.

The website checks if the user is logged in and then displays 15 items (title, description) from a mysql database and the rating (stored in another database) and the comments (another database) for each item. It also displays some stats (number of items, comments). I also have an image for each item.

My specs are: AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 5600+ 2.90 GHz

RAM: 4.00GB

Windows 7 64bit

So what do you think, how much visitors and items could it handle (at once or daily) ? My internet connection is good, around 7-10 mb upload and same download speed
