I'm in the home stretch on my first (and, hopefully only) remote
IP cam installation.
It's a couple of cameras for a Windsurfing shop so people can see
how things are on the bay instead of calling the owner every five
minutes on a windy day.
http: //ExtremeSurfCam.DynDNS.org:8080 - works with IE, but IE
will want to install an ActiveX control. Other browsers, it
works... sort of...
Anyhow... this is strictly for love and the owner is paying for
the hardware/software and not for my time.
Only piece missing is a PC to host the camera server - which my
muy expensivo VAIO laptop is doing right now.
No keyboard, monitor, or mouse needed bc it can run headless.
We've got $350 to work with.
The Question:
What're the chances of my finding a box running XP or later at 2
ghz minimum with at least 2 gigs of RAM for that price?
