I was thinking of a 2.00Ghz system, 256/512Mb memory, 80Gb and a DVD-RW for backup. All I will be running is Windows 2000 Advanced Server or Windows 2003 Enterprise.

What do you think?
I'd personally go for at least a gig of memory and possibly a larger HDD, other than that you don't really need anything too fancy, and I wouldn't go for Win2K AS, it's an enterprise server, just stick with the normal Win2K server.
