Thanks for your input, I was thinking about doing something like that today. I have keys for Windows Server 2008, R2, SBS 2011, 2012, 2003, etc. I'd think Server 2008 R2 would work the best, SBS requires 4GB RAM so I think that's out of the question.
Anyway, I'll try it out and see how that works. Thanks again

if your using windows server alone, it has a built in DHCP server along with a lot of other neat crap. I have Windows Home Server 2011, it is pretty much striped down windows server 2008 r2 and the windows home server is more of a application and service that runs on it. Still has the good old fashion server manager so adding a role is easy. You could even have it set up as a vpn for your laptop or phone to connect into.
Nice thing about atom is that it's pretty good at light multitasking.
