Hi again,

Did some testing this weekend and realized that the Toshiba laptop is waaaaay too slow for my liking. I see posts here with people using P300's and 128MB RAM, honestly I don't know how. The Toshiba is a 1.10GHz Celeron with 512MB RAM and most frontends just drop it to its knees. In any case I ordered an Epox micro-ATX board with a AMD Sempron 2600+ from Newegg to replace the Toshiba for as the Machputer. This should be more than enough processing power for whatever I run on it. As for the Toshiba, I guess it is back to Linux on it.
