I've got the least server like server of the lot of you then.
Its a Celeron 333, the original 6Gb HDD has W98SE on it, a second 120Gb HDD has been installed and is set up for file and printer sharing partitioned off into a 40Gb iTuned drive and a 80Gb Data drive.

Outlook PST files are all on this machine and the paths of the desktop and laptop point to it so both access the same mail folders (one at a time).

'coz it's so old, the CPU is cooled by the PSU fan only and the whole box only has a 250 PSU in it, it runs virtually silently. It has a DJ1220C and a LJ1150 connected to it and is plugged into my ISDN fax line as the fax machine.

It might get an upgrade next year, but only because if the wireless network drops, file locks remain, these cannot easily be dropped on W98, but can on a more advanced OS.
