Gotta love that 50MB linux. Especially since it can be installed to the HD and run as an operating system. 50 MB operating system.... puzzling.
 
It's a superb little o/s, been using it for quite a while. Shame there's no PPC compile (I'm sure it's possible, I just have no idea what I'm doing :p)

Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
Any of the SP crew still out there?
