I'm running Linux Ubuntu on my 350MHz server (made from old parts I've upgraded from), but like all the distros I tried, there's always a problem that drives a Linux newbie like me crazy, which in this case is almost no GUI visible server features and no GUI for setting up hardware (I'm stuck with a refresh rate of 60Hz because it doesn't recognize my monitor or video card). I also had the problem with Linux not detecting a wireless card, so I had to swap it with the ethernet card from the family computer which is almost never used anymore (although still runs 24/7 for no apparent reason).
I managed to get the Linux TeamSpeak server running without a problem, it was actually simpler than the Windows version I think. But as for all my other servers (HTTP, FTP, mail, whatever else), I'm directing pilot51.com to my personal page on my ISP, which contains contact info and a few other things to keep people slightly up to date on what I'm up to.
As far as gaming is concerned, Windows all the way!
