	Well, I've got a phone line (spare)
	Pretty solid electric (medical priorty)
	Time.
	Trouble is equipment, knowledge
	seems like others have the talent to remotely handle some of it.
	Can a PC host it?.  I know newer better, but we got a tight budget.

	Any ideas?, about what a min machine it would take/software, or just
a
	download transfer?..
	Grumpy
