- Even so, if it deos become obsolete, all the better. I have friends
- whose house had something near $50K in computer equipment, puchased for,
- at the most, $1K. All of this equipment was `obsolete' by the standards
- applicable, but worked fine to give them a decent Ethernet LAN and .5Gigs
- of memory, with up to .1-.2Gigs out in the network. Obsolete is not
- necesarily a bad thing.
