How much horsepower do you want? I get my "servers" at Walmart for $149.00.
After I sell of the unneeded accessories, it ends up costing me less than
$100.00. Works great for mundane server duties, but not suited for high
performance demands....
The name of the product? XBOX by microsoft. About the only thing they make
right and price right.... and runs gentoo beautifully.
I was thinking about this just the other day - could an Xbox handle IMAP for 3 or 4 users, do you think?
I'd really like an Xbox that would handle that for 10.
I heard that older Xboxes run Linux more easily - do current ones need chipping in order to do so?
Thanks,
Stroller.
