I've used an old eMachines PC with a couple of network cards and a switch in the past. An order of magnitude better than the Linksys router from my ISP it replaced. Also never had to reboot until I moved.
Never tried it as a VM front before. Good to know it's another option.
- ris 13y agoIs power free where you live?
- eksith 13y agoI was formerly on solar before moving to an apartment. Hence the "I've used an old eMachines PC... in the past." Besides that, the power supply barely made past 200W, which is basically 2 incandescent bulbs.
- ris 13y agoAs someone who was on solar you should realize that 200W is a _lot_ of power. Especially if it's 24/7. If you hadn't heard people have moved away from incandescent bulbs because the energy use is considered unacceptable.
