I see no problems in starting with 80gb. If your website grow, you can easily just put more space in the computer/server.

80 GB seems good to start with and if your site gets bigger, it's easy to add more space to the server.

"probably"?

I have 4GB in this machine, and even that is more than windows XP (32bit) can use (yah, using the /3GB switch helps a bit).

I don't see much space requirement for a PHP/DB based MyMiniCity. You will mostly be storing text based information (IPs, descriptions, URLS). I've also removed your "jampan" link from the URL.
