Re: TI-H: Re: Hardware upgrades
Ok, I have Win95, WinNT SERVER 4.0, Microsoft Internet Information Services
(HTTP server) Exchange Server, Internet E-mail server (forgot the name),
WinProxy, all running on the same 486 machine. Did I mention it has a 128K
ISDN internet connection, proxied over the network, and a 7-CD CD-ROM tower
as an information server? All on 6 MB ram :( It sits in my basement, and
if anyone gets within 10 feet of it, without hitting a button on my keychain
remote, a loud siren goes off, and lights flash on my desk, and my mom's
desk. (My mom is usually the one to mess with it though, she resets it and
doesn't restart all the apps :( )
