I recently had the choise building home server with Windows or Linux, and due to diminishing and frustrating experience, not least with the unavoidbale spinning fans on my windows computers (I call them vacuum when I talk about them to my wife), due to the misfortune I have to work with Windows I started to dig myself into Linux matters instead and now have a satisfactory quiet and cheap home server setting at home.
