:)  Actually, if you're only using that computer for the purpose of a 
terminal server, I'd say a 386 would work great, as you need no GUI.

Sure, I find myself reading e-mail that way more than anything else, it's 
just text anyway :)  The hardest thing for a Linux newbe would be getting 
the OS installed, networking configured, etc.
