You might want to consider running some web sites on Apple's OS X.  The
native Apple file system is case insensitive so there wouldn't be an issue
with the existing FP junk.  I normally repartition OS X systems with most
of it a UFS file system so it won't be case-insensitive, but leave the OS
on the native file system with room for things that would break on a case-
sensitive file system.

I haven't checked to see if the M$ FrontPage extensions are available for
OS X, largely because I don't trust anything from Microsoft.  I have used
some dedicated Cobalt Raq boxes where customers absolutely demanded FP and
ASP, but my experience with the Cobalts has been generally unsatisfactory.
