the issue is that its very old. when running it, you will use a ton more electricity and be a lot slower than even a 5-8 year old unused retail box/workstation.
yes, you could throw ubuntu on there and it will work fine. then you could toss docker on there and play with some container apps for the kids maybe… like a mintecrafter server.
but, like i said, youd be better off digging a more recent workstation out of some garbage can and doing the same thing.
e. ha, just checked that is a desktop/workstaton box…i thought you were talkin a real HP server… they have much larger power requirements. that little box you have there would be fine for a little mini server for light apps.







i hope some future president campaigns on the promise to rip out every molecule of gold, every fixture installed by that orange piece of shit and put the whitehouse back they way it was.
