Ouch , Im still pressing P150/166 into service as desktop units ,and p90 as firewalls. Amazing what linix can do. Dont try this with M$.
The gateway/firewall/mega-server I am bringing up is a PII-400 w/ 128MB RAM, and ~24 GB EIDE HD space. A Celeron 266 w/ 64MB RAM was actually overkill for the freesco scenario.
Well, don't forget, this machine is also a "mega-server".
M$ on a P 150 you must be kiding , thats why I put linux on it. It started as an test bed and it worked so well I pressed it into service as it works fine for what its used for. I use it for making store sings with applixware. Nothing realy powerfull on it so Ihavent though of upgrading it yet. I can even run word Perfect Office 2000 on it. Worperfect is a little slugish but very usable , and paradox is a wee bit more slugish. I still want to try applixdata on it then make a fianl decision as to which will stay on it.
But I do pity you trying to use a P150 with M$ for a desktop.
