I'll be using it for print server as well as mini server that won't have too much load on the server.

Pentium M is for Mobile gadgets, it's intended for laptops notebooks, etc. Never use it for a desktop computer. Or if you want to make a light traffic print server, Celeron would make a nicer deal, M is way too powerful and way too expensive for things like that.

Microsoft Windows Small Business Server includes all the stuff you would need for an office of this size.\n\nWindows 2003 Server has the pieces too, but you need to check into both about which will cost you the least in pricing.\n\nI know ALT'n has a mail deamon too - I've used there fax software and it's great - I suppose their mail software is good too, even though I've never tried it.

First off, purchase a USB hub to expand the number of available ports.\n\nSecond, depending upon the number of parallel printers, purchase some USB to parallel adapters, one for each parallel printer after the first, which is connected to the printer port.  Remaining printers that use USB connections can be connected directly to the USB hub.\n\nShare each printer, and voila! 5 shared printers.\n\nAnother (more expensive) option is to purchase print server devices (Netgear, HP JetDirect, etc.) and connect the printers to them.  This will save the overhead of managing the print queues on the server if the server is being used for anything else.

Just let it be a simple machine to surf online for your kids or old folks. Just try not to install too many applications like office or graphic program which will slow it down.\n\nOr depending on how comfortable with techy stuff, you can use it as a print server, a fax server to route your faxes to email, a router if you have a network of computers.

Hmm.. Although it wont make any apparent difference to the activity of your computer, I wont recommend it for long run .. Squashed and cramped cables will torn up sooner than they are expected to .. And as Murphy's law states "If anything can go wrong, It will go wrong" those wires will attract cobwebs or all other things like that .. \nI'll suggest you to organize them .. :)

I would use an external USB drive (flash or hard drive depending on size of files).

Consider 2GM RAM with a Pentium processor. Apache on Linux will be a good choice. Hard disk will depend on your needs, but make a start with 120GB hard disk.

Hi,\nI'm guessing that you don't need the server to handle a big load of users, that you need it only to expereince...\n\nhere is an easy(very) to install package containing the server + php + perl\n\nhttp://www.apachefriends.org/en/xampp-windows.html

My office went from a printer with 2mb ram to something like 48 and the difference in speed was amazing. I had to run checks on the printer and it saved a lot of time. Huge difference if you have large print jobs.

You can buy a wireless print server and connect is to your router and printer but it is much simpler to purchase a network ready printer.  We just bought the HP Photosmart 8450 and love it.  It isn't wireless but the wife can print from her laptop in the living room with ease.\n\nNetwork printers from Newegg:\nhttp://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList.asp?Submit=ENE&N=2010330038+1099808380&Subcategory=38&description=&srchInDesc=&minPrice=&maxPrice=\n\nBuilt-in wlan printers on Newegg:\nhttp://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList.asp?Submit=ENE&N=2010330038+1099908388&Subcategory=38&description=&srchInDesc=&minPrice=&maxPrice=\n\nFrom my experiance print servers can be finicky, you need to carefully check what printers are supported.  I would suggest if you go this route to purchase the same brand as your router to help minimize potential problems.

I would like a combination of the 2 with some more ram\n\n(i heard somewhere they will use mirrors to send the info instead of wires so they can send info at the speed of light. and it will be a lot more quiter)

Any printer that works for a desktop will also work just as well for a laptop.  Size may matter however if you are going to lug it around :)

If you need it "desparately" BUY IT!\nIt comes as part of Server 2003
