Sunhelp.org on an LX?... what is this 1998?... seriously that is some 
serious crack you are smoking. (:-))  LXen are fun but you'd have to go 
with an SS20 or better to handle the kind of services the mailing lists 
require.  Actually I lied... I have an LX... they're too slow for just 
about everything.  They also overheat under load.  Perfect machine to 
save space would be an Ultra 1/200 E.  Bill used to run the thing on an 
Ultra 5 so I highly doubt he'd run it on an LX now.
