When I built my house I ended up with an 1800sqft basement. In it I put a 250sqft server room to support my business (Computer Network Builders) and my hobbies (Computer Network Builders). My electric bill was through the roof! After several years, I virtualized the server room to cut down on the electric bills. Then last year I moved almost everything to the cloud. I no longer need a 250sqft server room in my basement. I have cut the server room down to 160sqft to accommodate the larger office/recording studio.
Working on the office/podcast recording studio today. I have no one to help me with this project. Every step is a one man show!
