I've been browsing this forum for awhile (16 hours total, in two days) and being this is my first post, I don't want to get flamed to death for the question I'm about to post.

Okay *puts on flame resistant gear* I would like to host a server from home....

And I currently have a setup, I think would be good for web hosting, but I would like your (somewhat honest) opinion of my setup.

Here it goes:

CPU: Intel® Core™ i5-750 Processor
RAM: 4G
HDD: 1 TB (soon to have 4TB)
Network card: 1 GB

That should be about all the (important) hardware for my server.
Oh, also, it runs on Windows Server 2008, if that means anything.

Now, I am very new to the web hosting scene (well a bystander to it) and from what people have been saying, VPS is where it is at for a beginner web hoster, and I agree. ( I move alot)

Any way, Thank you.
