it may be best to move this to "Development & Technical Discussion" board so that it doesn't get buried in this board. it is a good question and i have been doing some research lately to run my own node. so far i have found this link very helpful but have not tested it yet:

if you found anything better, please share it.

I'm not a very tech savvy guy, so I don't understand a lot of this stuff. Is getting a node up and running able to be done on a laptop alone or do I need some sort of special equipment?

I feel like the more I try to learn about technology the more I realize I know jack shit. A regular node is the same thing as he LN node correct?

I'm not sure how to move this thread to the forum location you specified, otherwise I would.

So LN is going to come out any day now. Anyone know how to open up your own node? Supposedly you can do this with just a laptop computer which I have with me right here right now as I type.

How does one simply open up their own node?
