    What should I do with my new server.

    I just got gifted an old server from a client... it's old, but not that old, still got a bit of grunt in it.

    Any ideas what I should do with it?

    Have a lab at my new job which I have a day in a week to play with whatever hardware I want, I'm looking for ideas for what to do with my home one...

    I'm tempted to set up an exchange server for my iphone

    It's got a regular SATA controller on it, as well as IDE... Got a SCSI backplane too, so if anyone wants to throw some SCSI drives this way that would be awesome
