Linux Basic Linux Server Guide

yup, mostly the "because i can"
plus, i love learning new things, this would be yet another thing to teach myself...
It would most likely do nothing more than host my website (or a mirror), and perhaps fold sometimes...

And i agree with the comment before me, you really dont need anything above 2ghz in your comp. Yet some people have 3-4, gimme a break, if you OC it to 4ghz, or 3.5 or whatever, yay, thats awesome, cause its a "look what i can do".. but if you go out and buy a 3.5 or whatever, theres no point... bragging rights yes, but ill laugh if you brag about a comp (that works the same as mine) that you bought for 2x-3x the price...

But yeah, mostly the "i want to try it" =P
