The discussion of owncloud reminded me of a failed attempt to deploy it myself circa 2013. Now that I've moved most of my personal stuff to docker (see my repo https://github.com/instantlinux/docker-tools), trying out or even fully deploying these types of tools is a breeze; I was up and running Owncloud in well under an hour, complete with installing the calendar plugin and verifying calendar sync to my iPhone. (This was starting from *zero* knowledge of what owncloud is really all about.) I'll learn owncloud in coming days. Meanwhile, if you're curious about Docker and want a shorter learning curve, check out my github repo as noted above. I've got swarm stack definitions for a lot of the commonly-used Linux apps, and I've published compact images (to https://hub.docker.com/search/?q=instantlinux&isAutomated=0) for any of these for which I didn't find an easy-to-use generic image on Docker's public hub. As for hardware, my Docker lab experiment proved so successful that I'm keeping the cheap "throwaway" mainboards that I bought for the learning exercise starting in January (three under-$100 J3710 and J3455 mini-ITX ASRock boards); they're close enough in performance to my aging Core-i5 mainboards that I don't need faster hardware. And they're fanless, burning only about 12 watts which is important where I live now (35 cents a kwh for electricity). -rich
