I mentioned last year that I need to setup my own Dedicated Server since it is too expensive to rent one. Now my server is up and running at home. I haven't migrated this site though. Probably this month.
I calculated the cost of having dedicated server at home. I think it is way much cheaper. Below are the breakdown expenses:
Dedicated Server (Home)
1. AT&T ($330)
- $250 for technician
- $80 for gateway/router
2. Windows XP Professional ($300)
3. Desktop PC ($600)
Total: $1,230
Dedicated Server (Rentals)
1. Celeron/256RAM ($130/month)
In 1yr:
Rent: $130 x 12 = $1,560
Own: $50x12 = $600 + $1,230 = $1,830
In 2yrs:
Rent: $130 x 24 = $3,120
Own: $50x24 = $1200+ $1,230 = $2,430
and so on....
