xUbuntu (Home) Server Hardware Build (Canon SD960 IS Video Test)

Indoor audio/video test of the Canon SD960 IS. In 720p HD @ 30fps.
Just messing around with the camera, remember this video has been compressed by YouTube so its not really full HD, ontop of that the original file is .mov right off the camera, but I had to cut someone out of the video so i converted from .mov to .mpeg but it still looks great running off my computer and on YouTube too.

Specs of xUbuntu server:

P4 2.4ghz
256mb RDRAM
500gb HD (u can see 2 hard hdrives in the video, but i removed those two 80gb drives and put in one 500gb drive)
ATI 9600 Pro AGP Video Card (NOTE: you do not need a dedicated video card to run linux especially a server but this gateway did not come with onboard video)
Creative Audigy LS Sound Card (NOTE: again you do not need a dedicated sound card either but the motherboard did not come with any audio onboard either!!! Dont ask me y!)
DVD-R/W Drive

I chose xubuntu because its a simpler version of ubuntu, it doesnt have all the fancy gadgets also i chose it cuz of its GUI cuz im new to linux server and didnt care for the CLI.
Please rate and comment!

More videos on the server setup coming soon!

guys you dont say anything about the hardware. all i heard was Ubuntu UUbuntu. c`mon guys...

[TheAltamish]

@alexrevega well dude this was more a video cam test than anything. But tell me what would you like to know about the hardware?

[YakyuBoy]

This is a good quality camera

[TheAltamish]

@YakyuBoy def is, most of my friends who even have real HD camcorders envy the quality of the lil Canon.

[fraenkischcrank]

Sorry guys, but this is one of the badest video 've ever seen!

No coment!

[TheAltamish]

@fraenkischcrank I know!

[itouchhacker241]

the "piece" is called a heatsink

[xmodrock]

get off linux if you don't care for CLi.. go back to windblows.. and please learn about computers to some extent.. "metal peice" its a fucking heatsink designed to increase surface area to optimize cooling.. this isn't a fucking block of aluminum

[emtildeath]

HAHA just love the way you say Ubuntu. I speak Xhosa fluently, growing up in South Africa we did it at school. And I can assure you it is nott said the way you do :-)

[gergy008]

You can't pronounce Aluminium it's Al-yoo-mini-um, not Al-oo-min-um

[hickspixx]

Funny video, kept me smiling! Oh it's RDRAM?!?! I only know DDR2! LOL

[mihou2]

@Maximusfool its not my point to have sound card on a server :D i just saw one in this video

[Maximusfool]

@mihou2 Why6 the fudge would you need a sound card or even a GFX in a server, most Servers are headless anyway, so it makes no difference...DOH!!
