Alpha - ex P90, 92mb RAM, now deceased Beta - P90, 92mb RAM, Netware 4.11 Gamma - 2xPII400, Netware 4.12 Delta - 4xPIII500, 2gig RAM, NT 4 Terminal Server Epsilon - 4xPIII500, 2gig RAM, NT 4 Terminal Server Eta - PDC for NT Domain Theta - BDC for NT Domain We did consider naming them after Star Trek:TNG characters, or maybe Roman Emperors, but greek alphabet won out. As for my computer on my desk, it doesnt have a name. Not even a brand! -- <\_________________________________________ // || Andrew Carpenter \ || || news @ gloucestershire.freeserve.co.uk \ || || ICQ : 20885021 \ ||gj||\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/ ~~~~~~
