Indeed it would.
I'm convinced he'd be sold on it.

I'd have to look and see how I setup my printer again
but it was dirt simple from the GUI in administration.

I'm pretty sure it's just assigning the COM port that's holding him
up on the modem.

I being skittish originally spend two days in ramdrive mode playing
around before commiting to the hard drive installation.

I'm not exactly at the top of my game these days either but it
was no big project.
