Do what you like, Oliver, but I stand by my earlier recommendation. If
your performance degrades by adding more than 64M to that machine, you
have been warned. If I were you, I'd slap a Voodoo Banshee PCI card
into it with an Intel eepro100 NIC, and an es1371 or es1373 sound card
and call it "good". Seems to me that this configuration would make a
very nice web box, MP3 player, or an even better file server with a good
SCSI card (Adaptec 78xx or a Tekram 390) and a few disks.
