it is a very bad idea, PIII low performance, low puissance, high hot, high electricity. > that might be (I am not convinced tho) with the electricity price in > the US, but certainly isn't universal. why pay 100dollars/month, 1200dollars/yaer for a server ???. 2 plateform Atom = 120 dollars, 1 firewall, 1 serveur web, 1 disc openbsd4.7 = 50 dollars :). Openbsd is very best performance, is best security. One problem: attack sript-kiddie, server datacenter or server home, the same thing. -- @plus
