planned to use desktop as server---> moot point, still using our web host

[Flora Legacy]

I just happened to remember last night that I have a spare computer in the basement, and I am debating on using it to host the website in place of the current web host we are using...if I do use this desktop to host the site...we will have infinitely more power in regards to what we can do with the site...unlimited databases, TRULY unlimited disk space, and limitless possibilities with that we can do all around...the only downside to this possible change is that this desktop is only a dual core Pentium...so that will likely be a bottle neck with the site, as well as our Internet only being 100 Mbps in the connection speed of our router...I am currently installing windows web server 2008 right now, so I will download all of the website data and databases, and then see if I can't get everything reconfigured to work on this local server...so this will have to happen after I get everything installed and configured...so I will keep you all posted on this progress...
