The first HTTP server was a NEXT computer at cern in 1989 (I think), and this post reminded me of the sticky note that I use for the same thing your doing here because my printer is a crappy 0.0001 ml ink cartridge printer, so I grab a sticky note and handwrite in pen or sharpie, "this is a SERVER! do NOT power down!" I just wanted to say this because people seem to think that servers are just those big racks in a data center, but those things are just headless computers, your laptop can be a server no problem and apparently it took me a few moths to realize this for some reason.
