Gosh. I hadn't realized this was an /even lower/ spec machine!

If the software will run from 2 DD floppies, certainly it'll run from
a hard disk, easily I should think. Getting a SLIP or PPP connection
over RS423 serial will be a bit harder, though.

I have to ask, though, what's the point? :�) Apart from to see if it
can be done?

(I missed hearing a "lowest-end webserver competition among some
friends a few years back. The winning machine was an actual IBM PC -
not even an XT, but a PC with additional hard disk. Running DOS and an
IP stack and a webserver in 640KB of RAM.) Fun, but pointless. I'm
currently considering making my IBM PS/2 Model 80-A21 into a web
server, and it's a 386DX/25 with 16MB RAM and 2 SCSI hard disks. Even
it will be a challenge. So I guess just wanting to *is* a good enough
reason...)
