If that's all you do on the box, no one's going to pop it - you're
right. I used my BBS as a way to goof off when I was at work - I used
Famatech's remote admin software to remote in, and read my home email,
browsed the web and used it like a desktop. I ran XP, then did the hack
to get patches for embedded XP, then bit the bullet and moved to Windows
10 when that support ended.
