Thought about it, but then I would be forced to always have both machines up and running just to grab my Email (and W95 boots faster than FreeBSD with X). Actually, what I'm gonna do is get a modem for the other machine, I think it's time... enough fooling with proxy servers, etc. for a lousy 28.8 connection to the Net. It ain't worth it when new modems are going so cheap (I would need a $5 phone line splitter as well, of course).
