works like a champ. I yanked the drives out of the old K7-based box,
dropped them into the walmart PC, after removing the 80G gOS drive,
plugged it into the net, and was up
in no time.

So these are really effective Plan 9 boxes. 512G memory feels so roomy!

I'm thinking that 512G is pretty roomy at this time no matter how you
shake it up.  :-)

(Who thinks that Ron meant to write 512M....)

Nah, I got a *very* *special* deal here. But you will probably only
get the 1/2G deal.
