Hi,
I've followed this thread with interest, because I
have an old DEC Alpha (PC164LX) that was used as a RIP
Server (Raster Image Processing). It has about 128 MB
of RAM, and is currently running Debian/Gnu "Woody".
I obtained it from a friend who worked for a company

Mac is not really an option for me at this time, and I may indeed have to
sweat it out. I do have something of a BlueTooth stack currently on my Linux
system, but all it does now is tells me it's getting packets from the PDA. I

You're the first person I've heard say that. How long have you had
it? I loved my 600 for the first few months. Now, 2 years later, I'm
