I know that when the instrauctions were written it was a few years ago. I am reading this now and want to make sure my hardware is up to speed with todays technology. Here is what I have. please let me know your thoughts. I mainly want to make sure that I have the right processor to support KVM, I plan to build a few virtual machines for a few thin clients on this device as well. Ubunutu will be the core OS with an installation of ubunutu server for the media server, then a few installations of Windows VMs and may a SQL server....any way. take a look.
