Are you that strapped for cash now?! My friend was technical director  
(or something) of URN a couple of years ago and it seemed like they  
spent a fair bit on fancy new kit. In fact I think I even remember him  
talking about buying a special box for OBs. Maybe it never happened.

Having said that, I've got a eeepc 701 with an extra 512 RAM (taking  
it to 1G) that I never use and is a bit battered (trackpad is slightly  
temperamental) that you can have if you so wish. Don't know if it's  
powerful enough for your needs... Contact me off-list if you're  
interested...

Regards,
Iain
