A PPC upgrade would presumably let you go beyond that. It sounds as though you might need to become acquainted with Linux: http://www.anytux.org/hardware.php?system_id=853 ...in a hurry if you want to win your bet. Perhaps someone on the list is running Linux on a Quadra and can speak to that? Should you want to give it a go on your own, this site: http://mac.linux-m68k.org/ ...seems to have everything you need to get started in the way of downloads.
