“Of course, I needed a good candidate system on which to do all
of this, and my various laptops and netbooks are not particularly
well suited for it. I considered buying a new low cost system, but
throwing money at a problem when you are unemployed is not the
optimal solution. Then I realized that my nettop system, a Dual
Atom motherboard in a Mini-ITX case, might be a good candidate.
Obviously, I wouldn’t choose an Atom (or even Dual Atom) for a
server CPU, but my objective is just to get things loaded and learn
about the administration and configuration of such a system.”
