Although it would teach me about GUIs and OOP, it would spend most of its time handing netnews and net mail all by itself in a location where it might not get visited for several days at a time. Therefore, it would not be good if the box won't reboot itself after a power-failure. Is this something in the software that can be easily fixed? Or, is it a hardware/rom problem? -- Paul Homchick :UUCP {rutgers | uunet} !cbmvax!cgh!paul Chimitt Gilman Homchick, Inc. :Internet cgh!paul@manta.pha.pa.us 259 Radnor-Chester Rd, Suite 140 :MCI PHOMCHICK Radnor, PA 19087-5299 :GEnie HOMCHICK
