From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

rPis for me aren't an option as there's no way to buy one here, first hand at least. And the electricity isn't really an issue as I pay it by estimates.
Also must say the server only purpose is to run long tasks without occupying my daily use PC. I don't have Ethernet internet either, so I can only put it online sharing connection with my laptop or with a (future) wireless expansion.
