Hi!
First of all, I wanna say I'm new here, so take it easy with me
Now, I want to set up a home server to do the following for me:
* Act as a "media library" for my entire household, ie holding all movies, music, images and stuff and being able to stream it to our 2 laptops and my Xbox (with XBMC on it)
* Preferable be able to be built from older computer parts, so that it won't cost me too much.
Any ideas what I need? Any suggestions on Operating Systems? I know how to use Ubuntu Linux, but don't send me down any "terminal based" stuff because I'll get lost!
Thanks in advance guys!
