I went to Fry’s yesterday and purchased a new server. $170 bucks. Pretty darned cheap. Running ubuntu 5.10 server on it.
I added an extra 512 megs of ram to it (had an extra sick at home) for a grand total of 640 megs. A 300 gig hard drive is on the way. Later on, I’ll get a couple more hard drives and make a terabyte raid server out of them.
It’s amazing how cheap computers can be bought for now. And *nix makes them quite useful. I’m using it as a file server and as a software development machine.
