I would go with a proper router / firewall unit, because of power consumption and it's less intrusive, you also have lights to give you an instant status report, not to mention looks a bit more professional, The pc's can then be used as client computers, (printer server would be useful eh). Regarding links I am happy to provide a link on my website, i don't get many hits, (or don't think i do) however a page dedicated to the project would fit the bill, if the blurb was written properly, some photos of it being set up etc would look good. if we all link to each other then eventually we increase the number of hits on each of our respective sites. If you can get the computers from work, perhaps again we can give a link to your company as they have provided the computers (f they are ok with that), paul > >I'm sure the startup costs wouldn't cost too much.
