What do you think about this as a home server? http://www.novatech.co.uk/novatech/specpage.html?BB-A422M

I would put a 500gb HDD in with Ubuntu

Looks OK, Paul, but can you expand the RAM?

I think it would motor with Ubuntu on it. Also, if you are using it as a server there should be no need for X, It'll fly.

It's got more than enough to run Ubuntu very well. :)

Novatech just emailed me back.

Quote4GB Capacity – I believe this model motherboard only has two slots so it would be RAM-67/2GB x 2.
