Mine was under my house, literally sitting in dirt. Maybe I put a
towel or something under it? It was a Dell 2950 or 1950 make with 32gb
ram! 5520?

I installed server 2003 on it and setup adds

Ohh nice! Keep it up then. Hopefully I'll be integrating more ubiquity
hardware into my lab soon. Currently I only have the USG Gen 1
gateway.

This is how I started. Started evolving everything, unless I had a
purpose for it in the home, I didn't get it.

Since we are building a new home, I'm able to design exactly what we
need and get the gear now.

For me, it was just a humble raspberry pi. Amazing how much you can do
on that little thing as you're first learning
