What are the issues with hosting my companies website onsite?

Hi There,

I am looking for information on hosting my own company website. At the moment I am hosting the website through a web hosting company and was wondering about changing that so that I host my company website onsite. The reason I was thinking about this is I have 10 static IP addresses that I currently have as well as a few machines lying around the office.

Would it be a wise move to maybe get a LAMP or WAMP server up and running and connect it via one of my spare IP addresses and then host my companies website onsite as apposed to paying some other company to host our website? To me it seems like a good choice, it’s just that normally when something seems like an easy option it could go horribly pear shaped. If it would be a good thing could someone send me some links on the best way to get this working.

I am busy searching the net for more information but i find that usually the best info comes from the guys at TR.
