I dare anyone to try and host a 32+ slot server on their home PC.

I dare you.

Yes; you need very powerful hardware, and an internet connection with huge bandwidth to host a server. 1 thing i dont understand though, is that with minecraft, you need a state of the art hardware to host a large server, and you can have about 150 players max with the current hardware, but with games like wow you can host upwards of 3,000 players with the same hardware. I think minecraft servers need some major optimization by notch.
