Lines: 15 Message-ID: <wusf.14.00162E81@iohk.com> NNTP-Posting-Host: 202.21.128.113 X-Newsreader: Trumpet for Windows [Version 1.0 Rev A] I have a 33MHz 486 with 8MB. I intend to use it as a internet host connected to a local provider. I suppose I have to put some form of UNIX on it and Lynx and 386BSD came to mind. Do you think it is a realistic idea? The PC also has to allow dial-up access from users. How many modems do you think it can support? I would be grateful if anyone can give me some suggestion or share his experience with me. Thanks very much. wusf@iohk.com
