 I'm still amazed at how well the old iron held up. I ran DNS and mail
 on a Sparc5 for 100 people, had a small SMB share, and it held up quite
 well - that was, until our parent company sent an email to all that
 included a virus definition update to a system we weren't using.

 Suddenly my T1 circuit felt inadqeuate.
