I learn alot from you guys, man. I appreciate it.
It would be a good platform to mess with *nix distros though, as they tend to be way less demanding on the hardware front than Vista or 7.
I was thinking the same thing, Im running Ubuntu through a VM on the lappie I use now and was thinking about putting a distro thats a bit more advanced on this one when I get it going.
we are assuming it to be a lappie ??
so the other options of adding additional HDD's and setting them as a mirror / RAID 5 to create a file server are not going to be an option here really
It is a lappie, and what you're saying is really too bad as that is exactly one of the options I was thinking about exploring. Either trying to set it up as an FTP server (something I've never done and don't even know if is possible, but would tackle for the learning experience alone), a single or dual site web server, or 'RAIDing' it with my primary use machine, or 1-2 of these lol.
Would you mind going into the limitations of these possibillities a bit more? Why you say its not an option here, or if there are just alot of obstacles to overcome to accomplish it.
Thanks
