I need to do this aswell, to bad he doesn't show the specs of the Dell Optiplex

Most have detailed specs listed in description.

You can get them very cheap when offices upgrade their computers.

Mine has been chugging along quite fine for a while now for all my bitcoin needs.

How'd you get a $50 Dell?

I found mine on Gumtree which is a classified advertisement website in Australia were you can buy and sell. I found someone on there who was local who got bulk computers from offices that were upgrading and then sold them on for $50 each.

Nice one. I'll have to keep an eye out on gum tree. I see most are using FB marketplace, but there's so many scammers

Where is the longer than 20s guide?!

After you buy your old pc for setting up your bitcoin node you can follow the ministry of nodes which is the YouTube video I briefly showed in the video.

After that setting up the AlbyHub should not be too difficuly from just following the install instructions on their github.

Just picked up a meter high stack of servers at a government auction for USD300, reckon I might give it a whirl

Awesome!

The computer I use belonged to the government as well. It does give me some satisfaction that the technology I hope will lead to the governments downfall is running on what was once their own hardware.
