Hi Mac - you can burn a CD (700mg) with the current OS installation? I have a desktop
as well and have considered connecting them and pumping down the files to the desktop,
then using its CD/RW drive to burn a CD.
However, I noticed W2KPro has a lot of hidden files/directories and such - and I
have no way of knowing what to put to a CD.
Current specs as I remember them:
1.0 ghz proc, 20mg hd, 256meg ram (seems to shadow ram for a total of 600+ memory
at boot time).
