Depends what you want to use it for. I've got PPC Woody running on my
firewall but there's no way I could install win95 with a SIP, proxy,
apache (although I think there is one for 98), pppoe, iptables, dhcp and
BIND.
Okay maybe there are some free dhcp, dns servers for Windows but I
wouldn't trust them even for trivial stuff.
Sid with 2.6 and KDE or Gnome blows XP out of the water and into the
kiddies paddling pool.
