<OT> How many Boxen?

[Kevin O'Gorman]

I've got a few:

1. My wife's PIII-450 running Win Me (she loves it, and it keeps her
   occupied and happy, so what the hell).  Purchased from Pionex
   by way of a QVC daily special value.

2. My laptop (occasionally), and old P-150 from WinBook, dual
   booting Win98 and RH.  I use it rarely any more, it used to
   be a workhorse.

3. My server, many time made over, none of the original parts left,
   originally purchased as a 486-33 at a computer show, back when
   I was running ESIX, and was networking by UUCP.  It's now a
   P-133, 64MB (yeah, I know, a lame server, but it does enough),
   SCSI drives, Jaz, CDROM and 2 NICS

4. My personal machine, purchased from Pionex by way of QVC, also
   a daily special value.  PIII-550, 256MB, mixture of IDE and
   SCSI drives.  2xJaz, CD-R, 2 NICS.  Dual boots to Win 98 mostly
   to read photos off my digital camera, and for special runs of
   an application that doesn't run well for me under Win4Lin.
   The other boot is RH7.1 with Win4Lin (for quicken).

5. Linksys router to protect the Windoze machines, and provides a
   100MB switch for the local machines to share stuff.  That
   uplinks to a 10MB hub and thence to a DSL modem.  There is thus
   an inner 100MB network and an outer 10MB network, which is
   why the Linux boxen have 2 NICs.
