It&#8217;s got 128mb of RAM and less than a 1ghz processor, which I don&#8217;t think is fast enough to run an <em>anything<\/em> server on, but it is something.

I&#8217;m using Ubuntu Linux 5.10 for the OS, because I like Ubuntu. It&#8217;s the king of freeware. It comes pre-installed with <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mozilla.com\/firefox\/\">Firefox<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mozilla.com\/thunderbird\/\">Thunderbird<\/a>, and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.gimp.org\/\">The Gimp<\/a>, three of the five best freeware programs on the internet (the free five are <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mozilla.com\/firefox\/\">Firefox<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mozilla.com\/thunderbird\/\">Thunderbird<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.gimp.org\/\">The Gimp<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/blender3d.org\/cms\/Home.2.0.html\">Blender<\/a>, and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ceruleanstudios.com\/\">Trillian<\/a>).
