Hi all,

Does anyone have a use for an old pentium I/II (?) 233(/133?) 32Mb 
machine? I used to use it as a home server for testing websites on, but 
don't need it for that since I bought the NSLU2.

It's pretty slow for today, but is still perfectly fast enough to use as 
a home (or small office) web/file server. No hard disk but has a 
ethernet card, graphics card and modem. Would be good for anyone who 
wants to experiment with running their own headless server over ssh. 
Might also do as an X-client to a faster machine. I could also throw in 
a 4*20 LCD character display and a solid state flash disk with 
read/write switch (useful for running a secure server).

Free to a good home - I'm keen to find a home for this rather than trash it.

andy
