Endurance :-)

Its free and lightning fast.  But you definitely have to be willing to
struggle a bit to make it work.  As with any flexible, powerful tool there
are many uses; each use is not exactly spelled out in the documentation, as
each of us has our own user needs and experience levels.  Map server
provides an excellent foundation and rich API to allow you to accomplish
many mapping applications - both static and dynamic.  I've been using it 4
years now from 3.5 .. on a variety of single/multiple CPU boxes and OS's.
It depends on what you want to do, which should be your first step.
Identifying what you want to do.  Good questions get good answers.

Hello all.

I am thinking of using MapServer for an application I need to build but was
wondering what the minimum software and hardware requirements were to
install it on my computer.

Hope you can help.

Kevin.
