Computers are handy for stuff like emailing, browsing the internet, the limits are endless....

555579 2007-06-05 08:54:00 yes i seem to get some many pcs, all in working condition, some i keep some i dont (i have one HP Netserver LC2000, a desktop i build, a laptop and the machine mentioned in this post, all in my room). i decided to throw Win 2k3 standard on it, threw in a 160gb and a 200gb hdds, using it as a fileserver and i also installed microsoft ISA (internet Security and Acceleration) Server 2004 Standard. *which is a proxy/firewall* Seems to be working okay so far. Linux prob could have done it too, but i seem to be extremely hestiant to even touch linux......i dont know why either. aidanmaz (7180)
