Are you sure you want to "own" the box? I had nothing but trouble trying to maintain a little gaggle of self made boxen at various data centers.

I ended up changing almost all of them to these little $39/month dedicated marvels at interserver. They mess with the hardware, I get the goodness.

I would just keep renting VPS/EC2 machines, but I really need high RAM machines. 8-16GB, and I already have the boxes here, and I just want to get them online 24/7.
