Adam,
I'd agree with this and further suggest that if you want to experiment with
internet services you might like to try one of the many linux variants. My
lib is similar to yours (though the disk is bigger) and I use it quite
happily as a software development machine under W95b and Mandrake 7.1. Under
Linux it also works quite happily as a web server.
The only embarrassment is watching my current project take five minutes or
so to compile on the lib and ten secons or so on the desktop :(
Cheers,
Neil
