Sounds like I'll have quite a few options to choose from during initial
setup.  Hopefully the Pi4 instructions and/or turorials walk me through them.
The only thing I can see running a PI as a server for would be to host my BBS
and or webpage.  But .. thats a learning experience I have yet to explore. 
At the moment, I want OS that the kids and I can grow into as we learn. 
Thanks for the suggestion, I'll add it to my list of research this AM!
