[Techtalk] Do I even think about upgrading it?

[/dev/null]

i'd be very interested... a good friend (ex-boyfriend actually..) of 
mine is running www.astarix.co.uk - providing linux networks & solutions 
to people for a fraction of the cost of the opposition and using 
recycled machines... i think it'd be invaluable for his project...
