Ya, but your B & W is dropping farther and farter down the food chain.  I
just bought a G4/500 Gigabit ethernet for $600 (40gb/384mb/DVD/56k) to act
as a server.  It depends on where you look.  I could've snagged a second
G4/450 for $500, but I didn't have the cash in my hand.

The advice to avoid a Wallstreet (and all their problems) is sound.  Get a
Pismo 400 at the least.  And if you don't have the $ then save up until you
do.  I have a pile of dead Wallstreet units here.  Don't go there.
