E.g. the HP Procurve 1800-8G is quite cheap. I think I paid <200 USD for it. It's no longer sold, but you can pick it up at ebay. Fanless. I took a look at the NL36 server the OP mentioned - and it actually does look quite decent. Maybe not for number-crunching. But for low-end stuff, it looks OK. You might even be able to run e.g. Zimbra on it (with RAM maxed out). Of course, regular backups are highly recommended - but given that, and the 3year on-site warranty also available, it looks to be a good for home-use. _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
