What to do

Successor right now is in a state of... well, I'm not sure what you'd call it.
Just recently, I wiped it clean of all the software that was on it, and decided to try to use it as a web server. Well, it's Windows XP Professional, and that didn't go over very well. That means that if I want to use it as a web server, I will need to upgrade it to Windows 2003. $700+. Ouch. I very quickly decided that I won't be doing that any time soon.
I looked into alternatives, but nothing looks good, so Successor currently sits around crunching BOINC, and occasionally is used as a second computer when I'm running a full screen game or something. I honestly have no idea what to do with it right now, so it just sits around, taking up space.
Until I can get up the money to throw Windows 2003 on there - and that is very low priority on the list of things to do... like, last - I guess it'll just sit around whirring away. I never thought I'd see the day where I had too many computers. I'm sure I'll think of something.Labels: BOINC, Servers, Windows
