Yes. One running NT 4 (P3 700MHz) - fast enough except the graphics acceleration is non-existent. Along with a P3 450 tower from 1997 used for testing and a trusty old P2 450 from around 96 hosting databases and doing backups. Mind you, my job is to support a 10 year old legacy app and this is the sort of hardware/software that the users have (and can just afford in some cases). The machines are as fast now as they were then...just don't try loading Windows 2000 or XP on some of them :-) My 1999 B&W 350 has taken over the file serving duties and still feels fast....under OS9.2.2. Soon though I'll have to get a machine to run XP :-( Neil -- The iMac List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
