To complete with a very different use: I also have a modest setup in a little non-profit organisation. It works very well for day to day job (openoffice, kpdf, kmail, konqueror, mozilla, flashplayer): Pentium IV server (1,2 GHz) with one cpu - 512 kb of Ram (it is not enough, it would be better with 1GB at least) - 2 old ide disk (60 GB each) in a software Raid array - 100 Mb ethernet Card for internet - 1GB ethernet card for thin client - running Debian Lenny x86 Betwen 4 and 7 ltsp client + 3 windows client by samba As this organisation doesn't have budget, I prefered to invest first in a good backup solution, then in server.
