Hi.

what a useful thread! I've just ordered enough bits to build a mini-itx 
machine (from www.miniitx.com) but they've run out of slim-line CDROM 
drives so I have to wait :-( I've ordered an M1000 (Nehemiah) 
motherboard and intend to use it for a small (tiny) intranet server 
(Apache) and logon server (Samba) for file sharing. It will also run 
DNS, DHCP, NTP and whatever take my fancy - I hope, replacing my P133 
full AT box. The difference in size and power consumption means I can 
have two!

While I've been waiting, 5.1 has been released so I now have to decide 
between 4.8 REL and 5.1 REL perhaps this is the opportunity I need to 
try v5?

thanks for all the tips.

Steve.
