Please explain the 250GB restriction that Comcast is implementing. Is this a daily/monthly restriction? Are they trying to limit the videos being viewed or what exactly? - froesh

GENERAL COMMENTS
Hi Mr. Merritt and Mr. Needleman,
Not really related to an episode, but I had a question I hoped you might be able to help me with: I've got an old computer running Windows 98 that I never use; would it be possible to turn it into a server for my home network? I would run Ubuntu server version on it, although my functioning computers are all running Windows. I'm not sure how to start; if you could direct me to any resources, I'd be grateful!
Love the Show, Andrew
