[Erich Zechar]

Hello. I am the new owner of a (free) PB 520c. It came without any 
cords, etc, but after fetching an AC adapter I was surprised to find it 
powers up and into OS 7.6.1. Unfortunately it is devoid of an 
Applications folder, so no apps yet.

My ambitions are modest - I don't need a new processor or probably even 
PCMCIA support. If I can get it to word process and communicate with my 
G4 iMac, that's great. If I can connect to, browse, and send email via 
internet it would be a pleasant surprise. I don't want to spend much if 
any money.

Questions:
Should I stick with system 7.6.1?
Is it easy to connect to Broadband? What do I need - a twisted pair 
receiver, but any programs  or protocol, etc? Remember, I'm an OSX 
native.
Where can I get  good Apps, for free or real cheap?

Thanks all!
