I am not looking to the 486 anymore. Received our "old" server from work.
Pentium 200 mmx w/ a couple of upgrades, dvd/cd rom drive, 2 gig hd and a
soundblaster sound card. Not bad for free and much nicer than the 486 I was
in the process of building. I was in the right place at the right time.
Thanks for you input.
