The LX is gimping along with 32mb of ram. I'm doing mostly cad type 
stuff on it with Dia and Visual Thought for diagramming and PCB for pcb 
layout. Also running netscape and other decent sun stuff. I've been 
looking for cheap memory cause I can't stand spending $100 on 96mb LX 
ram when I can get 256mb pc ram for $80. I'm keeping the IPC for a lazy 
day, it needs major major work. A motherboard for my b0rked 712 is 
coming also. All the rest of my hardware is working as far as my 
knowledge will take me so I've decided it's time to expand again. Plus 
I got some cash money and I want to spend it before the little voice in 
my head makes me save it. Thanks again for the LX, it's fun workin on 
4m and Solaris. If I just had those damn fddi drivers I'd be set.
