I guess the question is, what do you want to do on the Internet? For web browsing, Navigator 4.08 is as modern as you can get. I've found that to run Netscape 4.08 it's best to have about 20MB of RAM, plus enough for whatever you want to run with it. I use a Duo230 with 24MB and find that I don't run out of RAM easily. If you use POP/IMAP for mail, I'd suggest Eudora Light v1.5.3. For FTP, use Fetch 3.3. All of these are available as free downloads. Keep in mind that while Duo's are fantastic machines, they are not considered useful by the people who write web browser software. Nor are they held in high regard by those who design most web sites. Browsing "full featured" web sites with a Duo is a disheartening experience. If you stick to using your Duo for what it does best, you'll be much happier. Email, IRC, Telnet/SSH, software development, system administration and creative writing are some examples of things that Duo's do even better than more modern computers.
