Hi,

I need a freebsd 5.3 desktop server.

Do you have any recommendations for some vendors?

I could go buy some commodity hardware and do the install myself
but I seem to have bad luck with hands-on type tasks.

I'm not picky about CPU; Intel or AMD is fine.
Anything over 1.5 GHZ should do it.

RAM?
I guess 1GB would be good enough.

Disk?
A couple of 80GB drives would work.

I live in San Jose, CA; A local vendor would be great.

Thanks,
