VIA EPIA DO you think this would host a small site or forum?

Probably would do for a start, and if it's a good OS such as linux, and a decent connection, you'd probably be able to go far enough with that. The main problem with servers is the connection itself since that's the bottleneck usually.

Expect to pay lots for that though. Something you probably wont afford unless you make a few thousand per month steady.

Red is so discouraging. You have to look at it this way... if you want to host a site, it's obviously not going to start off huge, your going to start small, with little to few visitors. Running a home webserver is not hard at all, and thats what I did for a year for my forum before getting hosting (moved to cali, had to abandon the server
). As long as you have cable/dsl and a router your fine. I'd suggest to run linux and have the machines networked.
Ask away man, I've done the same setup, I can help you with DNS, your Ip changing and all that.
