I build a small wiring closet in an empty closet in my house with my modem and router. I plan to also put a small machine to download torrents for me to.
The specs will most likely be crap I have in my basement:
Pentium III ~450Mhz and matching ASUS motherboard. Probably very little RAM, assume a single stick of 128mb. Generic video card, not even sure if it will be AGP. I'm probably going to have to buy a small harddrive around 20-40Gb. The machine won't have much cooling since it'll need to be quiet.
The features I'd like are webserver and torrent client+web interface. I want the most lightweight OS and software.
What are you suggestings?
