I have a broken laptop with a screen that doesn't work, it was my brothers 2 years ago before he passed away (suicide).
I know it's just has a dual core AMD e350 CPU, 4GB DDR3 RAM, and a 500GB HDD.
I haven't had a use for it, but I was browsing /g/ yesterday and came across a thread about home servers.
I was wondering if I could run this shittop as a basic home server just to use for media, FTP, and perhaps install XAMPP on it to fuck around with some web development projects I've had thought about.
I don't care about data loss or anything like that so if one day it were to just die I wouldn't care about that data, just the laptop itself because it has some sentimental value.
Would I be able to run it 24/7 or maybe only a few days out of the week without it overheating?
Any other issues I'd run into? I was thinking about just tossing on Windows Server 2008 R2 because I'm not planning on doing anything too advanced with it.
