	I've been able to call my dial-up ISP with XP, and concurrently hook to my B&W through an ethernet crossover cable over DHCP! But, I primarily use my B&W, for XP drops its connection a lot, and so on.... I would like some step--by-step instructions of how to get my HP XP machine to access my continually online B&W 10..6 G4/500/768mb/100+gig/ using a 1992 Apple 16" monitor attached to a PC ATI 64mb vram PCI card!

	Jeff Strong and his wunderputer! Performa 640(PPC-601)/LC040/52mb/(8.6)/10.3gigs Win95b/586dx2/100mhz/32mb, with only 1 Zoom 56k modem, 16" Apple monitor, 12 year old Stylewriter II printer, floppy, cd, kybrd, & scanner! I moved "up" to an Apple beige G3 with a G4/500 zif chip o/c to 550mhz, running Mac OS X 10.1 with the same 16" Apple monitor now using 6mb vram, 768mb sdram ram, a 30 gig EIDE drive, another keyboard, same zoom 56k, a Yamaha SCSI CDRW 6/4/16, floppy, and future EIDE DVD, or.............transitioning a lot of this into a Powermac 9600! Bill Gates "forced" me to buy one of his 'pirated' WindowsXP commodity-based PC's from Dell 'new' for $400, 2.8ghz (slower than G4/550), 17", CDRW, 512mb, DVD, and same OLD Zoom 56k!
