well after almost a year of using a standalone plan9 system
i have finally had the time, space and extra machines to construct
my first "real" plan9 system. and by "real" i mean standalone fileserver,
cpu server, auth server and terminal. i also have inferno hosted on the
system.

i am very impressed at how well the system runs on the old 100-133Mhz
processors, 10baseT cards and low end video cards that were used.
i have started purchasing upgraded hardware and plan to put up a web
page detailing the construction of my existing plan9 system as well
as the new one. i will also post some of the problems that i encountered
during the construction as well as the solutions.

sorry to ramble i didn't have anyone else to share my accomplishment with.
when i tried to tell my wife she just looked at me like i was crazy.
