Hello Paul -

We both obviously enjoy tweaking our OS. It was quite common at
one time when costs of hardware were prohibitive. 

For myself, I've decided that costs for upgrades are too low to
justify the time and energy to get another 5% speedup here on
what I have now. I'm not happy about this but this is how lower
priced hardware versus my available time factors out to be. 

I will probably have a W2K setup here soon using NTFS. It will
be quite fast and very stable (from what I am told). It's an
older computer with nothing on the motherboard but the CPU. All
PCI slots, 8 meg AGP video, USR Robotics 56k modem, 192 meg of
memory. No shared video memory, no windmodem, nothing to slow
it down. I will probably be much more productive and a bit
disinterested at the same time. 

The upside is I can network my present system to it and keep a
backup online. This will allow me to get really extreme with my
modifications on this system with no worries about how much
damage I do since copying it all back won't be as troublesome.
