   This was one of the things I researched getting a new computer.  I went    
   with an Intel E6300 which seems to work well.  Installing eCS under    
   VirtualBox went smoothly [the demo CD didn't work at all, I took a leap    
   and ordered the real version.]  I agree about the network adapter.    
   There seems to be very little info about how to configure the networking    
   (DHCP, etc.)  I had more problems getting Samba working so I could share    
   directories.  It's now working OK for me, with minor glitches about    
   ownership and permissions, but Samba could be a *lot* easier to get working.   
      
   Now that I've got it working I'd be hard-put to list all the stuff I    
   tried and/or did to get there.  I'd like to see a step-by-step cookbook;    
   I'd be happy to contribute if anyone starts one, but I don't think I    
   could get started myself.
