    SS>> There is a laptop, ancient. It only has 128MB of RAM (and a 40GB

   Of course, I can host both the site and the fido node on adequate hardware. I   
   now have a node running on VDS and this is an excellent solution without   
   problems. But in this case, it is a process for the sake of process, a   
   creative act.
