Once again I ask you what a "modern" computer might be. I ask because
the frieght train of PC history is moving so rapidly. For instance,
I have a 500MHz/128meg machine. Hardly up-to-date at all since for
three hundred bucks you can now get something at least twice as fast. But
is that a "modern" machine for Arachne?
