now here's my issue. my linux box will probably stay running
24/7. i want
something that consumes as little power as possible. my current machine is
an athlon xp 2400. i notice if i leaving running all the time, my electric
bill is substantially higher and my house is noticably warmer.
I'd reccomend looking into a Shuttle XPC. I've had 2 SS51G's running
Fedora Core 24/7 for over a year. The machine does a decent job on
compiles (2.4 Celeron/512 RAM) but if I were doing a lot of that sort
of thng I'd probably put in a P4 + 1GB ram. YMMV.
