This is my home webserver (apache/mysql/php) for my hardware site. While searching for hosting solutions I very soon understood it would be much cheaper and easier to setup my own server here at home, at least as long the traffic does not saturate the 128kbit link.
surely it wouldn't be ok to use this machine in a corporate environment with high-availability / high-reliability requirements, but it is more than enough for a home server, considering the budget is low and it's more fun to operate your own server!
Sometime I will upgrade the PSU and maybe the UPS to ensure more reliable operation.
The server runs 24x7 the MPrime research software (

The server is placed on a manually-built metallic desk. next to it there is my second machine and the TFT (which servers both machines). My bed isn't away from the desk
