Default Home-Ran Dedicated Server

As some of you may have read, Verizon is coming to my neighborhood very soon.

So, would any of you recommend running a home dedicated server?:D

Its like, I would be in total control of the server. I would have the option of a 15/15, 20/20, 30/30, and soon available 50/50 connection at rock bottom prices.

I have added a poll also.;)

Also, the dedicated server would be an elite one that would be from Dell, with a very good business warranty:)

well as long as you can supply the uptime demand, why not? many people are doing it already.

I vote for no. If just run a small server, it's ok. If you run big server, how about security issue?

Very true! I have read several reviews about people running web servers, and haven't heard any complaints nor issues;)

but it's preferably for personal use only since you can't guarantee the uptime but only dependent on your isp. if you like to host others for money then you need a real server hosted by a hosting company.

You can solve all of what I am reading here with a home server but one thing that is tough is getting 100% respect from the DCs

Broadcasting is the #1 task!!

If you do this, make sure you are licensed and certifed.
