[Ti] personal file server

[Arne Hulstein]

Hi guys,
I have an old 500mhz TiBook of which the screen has broken (see much earlier
posts) and the battery is gone. However, it still uses less power than my
desktop. For this reason I was thinking of using it as the fileserver for my
wireless network. I have a problem though as the network also has MS powered
computers on it. (It shouldn't, I know, but still ;-)) Anyway, I want to
attach an external USB disk to use as a storage facility to keep it all low
budget. Any thoughts on how to make this work? I cannot use an NTFS
formatted disk as OS X won't write to it. I could make the whole thing run
linux, but I like OS X too much. What to do?

Thanks,

Arne
