I had to do the same... Only problem is that now, the two 98se boxes take several
minutes to browse the network when I try to open a shortcut to a shared resource,
or open network neighborhood. I'm not sure how to fix that yet, but I am thinking
of biting the bullet and putting XP on the other 2 machines... I can get cheap oem
copies off eBay...
