Linux server...?

[blue.flake]

Hi...

Can anyone tell me the minimum requirements of a Linux server!?

I want to buy one to host all my websites...

Tks,
B.F

Best thing about Linux is that you can practically run it on anything. To comfortably fetch up websites and files using say Ubuntu linux, you should probably look for something equivalent to a later model Intel P3 or AMD Athlon (hopefully in the 1GHz range), 512MB or more RAM (you can comfortably run Ubuntu with 256MB, but for web server usage, you'll probably want more than that), and a good deal of hard disk space. A gigabit ethernet NIC is recommended, but you can do fine with a standard 10/100 NIC.
