-----Original Message----- From: Samual Acorn would a dos 5 machine made in 1992 count? id use linux but i dun think i could find (or would want to use) a pre 1995 version... That would be wonderful. We are wanting a variety of computer platforms doing this. One of my computers, if I can find one, is is a Duo 230. ... and of course i could go farther back and pull my commodore 64 out of storage... there is an ASM TCP/IP stack for it floating around out there too... And there is the other computer I will be using, a Atari 800, the contender to the C=64. I currently hit the internet DAILY using a Atari 800 and a lantronix UDS-10 interface that makes telnet possible through modem emulation. It is great! i also have a 60Mhz pentium machine (106 MB RAM) that was made in 1992.... there isnt much of anything that that machine -cant- do.... tho right now its just being used as a web server/router(linux)... if i put win3.1 on it i could use it in this contest as well... That would be fine. PS whats the deal with the cheezy rose in your .sig? Would you prefer an elephant? ;)
