I'm having excellent luck with a 3/110 w/8MB as my network time server
and network management workstation. A friend has a 3/60 that has been
working pretty well - he did have some "everything core dumps all the
time" problems but after he replaced the upper 4MB of SIMMs (with 3-chip
no less) it seemed to clear up - only happens every few days now instead
of once every few minutes. He's running 1.3 and I'm running 1.3.1.
