I'm currently wanting to put together a tiny little box that's going to run Apache/MySQL/PHP and act as a test server for the odd bit of development work I do. I was going to put together an Epia based box but then I had a look at the prices of the old G4 Mac Mini on everyones favourite auction site.

Does anyone have any experience of using one as a test server? I could get the 1.4ghz G4/512mb/80Gb model with built in wifi for about £350. A similar Epia based build would cost about £400. Having it run OS X isn't an issue as it will happily run all the server apps I need.

Anyone got any opinions?
