okay I want to build a cpu that will take up the least amount of space and cost the cheapest possible.
Im thinking of running ubuntu on this server, it will hold a few files on it so that I can watch movies/tv from it or w/e nothing serious... main reason for this is so that it will hold onto my postgreSQL server that I need to be on my localhost and what not...

so we are looking for super small size, and super super cheap if I could get this for under 100$ that would be awesome... all I really need hosted on it is a operating system obv, and a postgreSQL server, which will hold onto poker hand histories so that I can retrieve them through the localhost on my other cmoputer through a program called pokertracker

So help me build the cheapest/smallest PC possible that is dirt cheap, but that will still work... id also like to somehow host files on here, and be able to watch them on other comps if possible, if not no big deal really
 
wow thx,
I was recently searching around, and im uncertain how this would work but I came up with a setup like this...
Case: 55$

Mobo/VGA/CPU combo: 60$ - 10$ mail in rebate

or...

45$ - 20$ mail in rebate = 25$

I guess use that same HDD you mentioned for
40$
and not sure what type of ram to use for this..


thoughts?
 
Well your setup's quality and performance is significantly lower than my setup. Those are pretty low-grade and cheaply made parts. Waste of money IMO.

And what that Flash drive does is pretty understandable from just the title alone. If you're too lazy to install Linux via a flash drive or don't have a spare flash drive, then go ahead and pick it up.
