Do you load your O/S onto floppy or something? I can see it now: New WonderWaveAMoogASynth, with 100Meg disk space for the builtin web server s you can publish your own music on the web...

I've been seriously looking at IP to control a DSP-array synth for some time now. Are others doing the same? Larry
