Im going to FINALLY get around to setting up a new PC that I bought a few weeks ago (finally got the 2nd video card in). My old machine is still usable, but is to slow to use as a main computer.

So I have a decent PC and not sure what to do with it. I was thinking about turning it into a media server for pictures, movies and make an attempt to backup DVDs on it so I can watch them anywhere in the house, but doubt i will ever get past 10.

my other thought is to turn it into a network backup server. basically backing up my new PC, macbook and my gf's laptop on a scheduled basis.

I guess I could do both, but really leaning towards the backup server but have no clue where to start with software, etc.
