the Classic is a fine machine to either hack on or put in production. Almost
all of the machines I have in production are of the same vintage.

As Ken wrote, the best performance will be gained by using Either OpenBSD,

Don't be afraid, jump in the Sun is fine :)

As far as folks throwing RTFM or STFW at you be warned, while we are willing to

Relax, enjoy.
