It's preferable to have on another literal machine, I was just under the assumption you were doing this from one box.

i assumed I could but then again it would put to much stress on resources on my cpu now that I think about it. Thanks for the info you have given me, I'll definilty have to keep those things in mind

I hear that phpbb will run on older machines so I decided I'll run it on an old IBM Thinkpad Intel 400mhz Pentium 2 laptop, it will be good since it has very low power consumption and very low heat output.

Oh man, that's gonna be pretty slow. How much RAM does it have?

It will technically run on it, but forums take a lot of resources. Once you have a handful of members that thing will melt.

That's gonna chug along fairly slowly, I imagine. How many users do you expect?

not much for now I'll use the laptop temporarily until I geta large user database and then I'll switch over to my Dell desktop with a 3.06ghz Pentium 4 processor with multithreading, and 4gb of ram
