I apologize if a similar thread has already been made on this subject--I haven't been keeping up too well over here, haha.
Anyway, I was hoping to be able to get XF for the forum I administrate, but don't own, but the owner doesn't want to switch from vB yet. I kind of want to get a copy just to play with (to attempt to make skins and/or modifications), but I can't find a reason for me to have a forum of my own. Are there/will there be any "test" versions of XenForo that I could just use to play with things without actually purchasing a forum?
Thanks in advance.
p.s. (probably a silly question) I'm also confused about "server requirements." For example, I used to have a forum on ZetaBoards and didn't need any special hardware. Is the same true for XF, or do I need fancy server knowledge and whatnot?
