Marten Good points you raised!
32mb ram and 7.6.1 on the IIfx should hopefully allow internet browsing. If not, I'll buy a Quadra 950.

But if you ask: does this or that 13 year old computer compare with state of the art stuff, I cannot say: yes. I would be lying if I did that. I have used a IIfx myself for quite a while. It is an oke machine. BTW Internet browsing is not exactly a lowend activity, not for computers of this vintage. They are actually a bit to slow to do it properly and some content is out of their reach.
