Setting up my own server (in my home)

I'd like some advice... what processor speed would you go with (I am thinking a 1.5ghz). How about memory? I've got the computer I just need to update my motherboard (it's a 200mhz LOL).

How about memory? I want to make sure I have enough. What OS would you use? I wanted Windows 2000 server, he wants Linux. Setting up my own server (in my home) I am researching so I can argue my case as to what I want and why (heck I will be using the server, not him LOL).

I've never set up my own server, my husband has but it's been a couple years.

I would mainly use this server for personal webpages (mine as well as friends), photos and email.

Any suggestions you can give would be appreciated.

Thank you
Rachel in Alaska
