Thanks Ralph, It's currently running happily plugged into my linux box, just thought having the DVD storage would be nice... like to mount DVDs on my 2400 that I burned under Linux or windoze, and yes the sub-$500 Apple would be right up my alley I need a new desktop for my girlfriend....

You may trying too hard for a desktop solution, using a an old portable

so do you (the list) think a 180Mhz 2400c would be fast enough to run
an external DVD writer (like the sony DRX-700UL I received for

Is there a way to use USB-devices on a 2400? I'd love to transfer data between 2400 and iBook back and forth, and my USB-stick would be my preferred solution.
TIA,
Tobias
