This may sound like a stupid question, but is it possible, using your own pc, to essentially "create" a server? just something simple to host one website with a some videos on it (it'd be for me and my friends and our home videos we make) if hard drive space is an issue, i have about....90-100 GB of free space on my computer i could use, also a cable modem if that has anything to do with anything, so...is it possible and/or could someone show me how? thanks

edit: now that i think about it....it'd be many semi-large video files, i could easily fit it on my computer, but if it's something about fitting it on any server on the net, i'd rather not pay for something that will be done for me that i could do myself, so......yeah......if it's possible to create a site and host it off my computer with many kinda big video files, then....please help me!

edit: oop! i just noticed the topic at the top of the page about this, but it's all in mumble jumble to me, i don't understand any of it!
