Install case

[he...@excite.com]

greetings gurus. i am diving head first into this webapp stuff and need to
install tomcat on my workstation/server/etc. from following the lists for a
couple of days i've concluded that i'm a little over my head but have read
up on tomcat and jsp quite a bit. 
this is my install case - i have no idea if i meet the minimum Hardware and
software requirements and if not would appreciate any pointers in the right
direction.

Hardware
pII 450
128M ram
2.3 GB HDD available

Software
NT4.0
Java2 SDK with jdk1.3
XML4J 3.0.x (xml is input source for my jsp app)

Also, let me know if i have a prayer running this thing on winnt or if for a
first time user i should try it on Linux.

I'm not exactly a guru, having only had Tomcat installed and working for
about a week, but it should run fine for development on that box. I'm
using it on a PowerMac 8500/120 with only 64Mb of RAM. It's a little slow,
but it's perfect for testing with only a couple concurrent connections.
The 8500 is a 604 processor (a second generation Powermac). I'm running
Linux/PPC, and haven't ever used Tomcat on NT. Can't help you there.
