The 800 makes a fine everything. MacOS 8.0 is completely unecessary though. Heres what my Quadra 800, which is my daily machine, has: System 7.5.5 OpenTransport 1.2 iCab 2.9.1 Claris Emailer 1.1v3 AOL Instant Messanger 4.0.972 As for serving web pages, I did have my Quadra 800 doing that for many months before I got an 8600/200 dedicated to it. I used something called Quid Pro Quo. It worked fine and dandy. -- Quadlist is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
