Thanks, Appreciate the hints and tips.. I will look into the book case solution (if I can find them here in Tokyo.) or other solutions for a firewall and web server.
Also, perhaps finding a second hand cube for a music server? /Bengt -----Original Message----- From: Eric C.

If anything, it's more powerful than you need. I use a PowerMac 7600 for my gateway/firewall, and a (headless) Cube as a music server. > How about adding an extra ethernet connection to the cube?

You can't add an internal one, but a USB one should be OK for a typical cable or DSL modem link. > I am very interested in using this solution, since it is very very > silent, or am I wrong? It's even quieter (and cooler) if you remove the graphics card entirely and run it headless. -- Eric C.
