Well hello people, as your may well know, iv'e done a few projects in my time.

-Bring an old laptop to modern standards
- Combine 4 computers into one
-upgrade this pc

all simple, as i'm still busy with myteenmedia, but today / tomorrow im going to try and set up a linux server, as i type it is downloading, slowly

.

I will be using the 4 computers i combined which is sitting in my garage. I hope it will be a fun project and well i shall post some pictures / show you when its online. I'm hopping to make a hosting / webmail server.

Thanks for reading, wish my luck.

CEO myteenmedia

P.s Im using xubuntu.

I don't think combining 4 computers as servers is the right way to go, unless you network 3 to work on a 1 database in the middle and then thread/retrieve data through each. Your internet upload speed has to be quite high to be honest or loading sites from your server will be very slow.

Jhames i don't think you understood what i ment. I had 3 spare pcs in my garage, then i use bits from each one to make one big pc, ie hdd from 2 of them cpu from one gfx from another etc.

Im going to make that ONE into a server.

Lol that rejestered user is me. i only set it up yesterday and im stil making it all. :p
