I'm going to colo a box just to handle email and light web hosting. Now I can build a really cheap rack server with a pentium D or i could buy a used mac mini for about the same price.

I'm really not sure which is better? or if it really matters. any input would be great. Thanks!
 
Core Duo is better than Pentium D, but it won't matter for email and site hosting.
 
If you're playing games, Technically, a 1.8 Ghz 6300 Conroe, Is faster than an overclocked Pentium to 4 Ghz. Thats what I heard. And I believe it may be true,

True, but he's not gaming. He's running a server on it.

Core Duo is a Yonah (the predecessor to merom/conroe/woodcrest), in case you were wondering.
