Looks like you can have some functionality with a G3:

Did you have IIS installed before .NET? I remember that I had to apply
some patches to IIS way back when, but that was with the first .NET
release and Windows XP Pro. Also, this may be a dumb question, but I
have to ask: is IIS running? :-)

I was actually talking to a coworker about Dan Brown's books the other
day and we both agreed that the books are written to be like movies.
Maybe that's Dan Brown's goal: To option all of his books into movies so
he can retire early. Sounds like a good plan to me.

Nope. Their IT department was not doing the hosting. Once the old server

Is it your fault for not checking up on the client? Could you be held
liable for said lost data? Should you feel bad about it?
Keep in mind, you save all of your e-mail and have a record of having
told them to get the IP changed in their DNS records.
This is all, purely hypothetical,
