This is my first real system that was built pretty much from scratch. There's no recycled parts from older systems contained within. It started off as a workstation, but has been promoted to its current role of server (NFS, HTTP, FTP) and was a true test of whether I could actually build a powerful, fast, and stable system. I think I passed. Record uptime is 8 weeks...
