The AIX box is an RS6000
IBM 43P Model 140
332MHz

There is an older AIX box in the warehouse somewhere.  I have no idea what is 
on it.

They are nestled safely behind a dedicated firewall appliance.  I do think the 
webserver was a bit overkill.  Yes, the powervault was expensive and loads from 
the front, it is in a tall APC rack enclosure just above the web server (why do 
we need 80gig DLT to backup website?????).  The hardware setup here is nice and 
is something to grow into (currently it gets like 30 hits a day).  

The Internet connection is to only a T1.  It WAS on a 256k circuit.  We are in 
a contract for $1500/month (cir is like 256).  Ouch!  I have providers chasing 
me down to sell it at $750 (circuit and ISP).
