In April 2004 our IT consultants worked with Pentium IV 1,8 - 2,4GHz, 1GB RAM. Two "Sun" servers with Solaris 2.5 - SUN ULTRA Enterprise Server 150 and SUN Enterprise Server 1000E operating systems were used, as well as five Pentium IV 2,4GHz computers using Hyper-Threading, 1GB RAM, technology. A high-speed fiber-optic connection and IP- telephone, working on protocol H323, allows us to remotely administer and support the solutions we have developed.
