server stuff, call to action!

[ChaoticReality]

Right, guys.

A server, we should try and have one, I think.

What do people think are reasonable specs? What stuff do we have that we can use?

There's an argument about not buying new stuff because we have stuff already, but if some of the stuff is old and crap, is it better to replace it and have at least some small element of futureproofing?

Ryan has asked me to order a new external drive for the jukebox and I could probably order server bits at the same time. We at least need a hard-drive, I think.

My suggestion:
Use the dual P3s we have
New case
New motherboard?
Hard drive
Ubuntu Server?

Suggestions/Comments/Anything?
