I got a "hand me down" Dell quad core from my wife who uses fast processors
for her CAD / architecture drawings.  Unfortunately with Dell you have to
navigate around their proprietary BIOS but, was able to install pristeen Win
7 32 bit on it and find the network card in it. Interestingly I can only log
into it via internet and not remotely via the home network as it is hard
wired vs wireless. I did fix the IP address as static but perhaps another
device is sharing that address so I'll try another number.  Anyhow I did
transfer the BBS there and will set up networking and my web server again
with that PHP feature. I used to like Abyss but I know other folks use Apache
etc.   Wondering if another mailer for fido and FTN networks would be better
than Radius such as D'Bridge.  My Fido NC, Nick Andre is the D'Bridge guru.
New learning curve here :O
