valuehost is, I think, just a Russian hosting reseller. Nevertheless I can't see much good coming from there, so I'm going to temporarily block this one and see what happens.

Awww. What's wrong with the SS1, other than being slow as dirt? :)

I have a Solbourne S4100/DX here that I need to get working. The problem is that OS/MP is buggy as hell and it had a tendency to crash to the ROM> monitor about once a week. I don't *think* it's hardware, both of the DXes I've owned were that flaky.
