I did something like this with a 486 box recently. It only had DOS, ISA only, and no network card. By the end of the night I had Win 95 running, copying files over FTP, and SSH'd into my router from it. It was fun.

- accrual 3y agoYes, I took the easy route and added an 3Com 3C509 ISA network card. However, it does have a serial port and that would be a far more interesting way to get it online!
