If you want to set it up as a desktop system you will be pushing your luck. It can be done but you will learn to live with swapping. As a home server (firewall/router/gateway/fileserver, no GUI) it will be just fine. It would also be more than adequate as a thin client. -- Frank Copeland Home Page: <URL:http://thingy.apana.org.au/~fjc/> Not the Scientology Home Page: <URL:http://xenu.apana.org.au/ntshp/> Keep it in Usenet.
