Server Eve
I’m strongly considering NetBSD for my server OS, the night before the afternoon everything comes from Newegg. I’ve used it before, and for something like what I’m doing it’s just about perfect (no multimedia, no monitor, established server software).
The portability peccadilloes of Solaris make it not quite feasible for my VIA chipset, but NetBSD—aside from not having ZFS—give me that similar awesome server feel I’ve been hoping for. I think it will be a good project, at least to try. I can always go back to Slackware.
