    Default Install Windows XP on PSP then make webhost?

    Hai,

    So my brother is going to uni and is going to sell his PSP, so I said I might buy it. Though I only want it if I can host my own website on it, though I know windows/Linux can be installed on it I don't know if it will be powerful enough/enough ram/CPU to run a webhost with HTML,CSS,Php & mySQL.
    Would it be possible, because I know for a fact that a £60 second hand PSP running as a webhost is cheaper than a £4/mo webhost for 4 years.

    Thanks

    Could it even store files for all of the applications? And at the HTML,CSS,Php & mySQL bit you only install PHP mySQL and Apache/IIS or whatever your using

    for $60 you mind aswell buy a crap pc to run the server on.. From the articles I've read i don't think windows or linux on psp could hold a website, even a very unpopular one.

    You can install Windows on it but it's extremely slow. From what I remember it takes like 30 minutes to boot Windows 98.

    Nick, the ones you posted aren't running the actual operating system. Just a web interface that looks like it.

    Windows on the PSP would run terrible. However if you really want to run a server off your PSP I'd checkout linux http://jacksonm80.googlepages.com/linuxonpsp.htm


    I even see Ubuntu being put on some PSPs http://aruljohn.com/info/pspubuntu/

    It's not going to be able to support it, especially with the amount of processing it takes, plus with an overloaded GUI on top of a gaming system (XP).

    Plus it's going to be hosting it over WiFi (since it doesn't have an ethernet connection), so you take that speed down to about dial-up speed for the end user.

    Plus you'll have to have it plugged up all the time, then you have storage space to worry about (not sure how big the Sony cards go up to now days).
