Hi
I'm wanting to use a server as a desktop machine and am getting the impression that the server I am intending to use is too powerfull, but the ubuntu server addition has no GUI and I'm just attempting to switch over from MS can anyone advise?
The system I am intending to use is a HP DL585 Specs listed below.

2x AMD Opteron 2.2GHz 64 Bit 1MB cache CPU`s fitted,
16GB Memory,
HP Smart Array 5i Raid Controller with 64MB Cache,
3x HP 72.8GB Ultra SCSI 320 Hot Plug HDD`s
Integrated Lights Out Controller,
2x Hot Plug Redundant Psu`s,
2x HP NC 7782 1000tx network Ports,
