That was my next question... once I get this thing running, I want to send files off of my laptop (downloads and doc's etc) and put my old 20gb empeg drive into my notebook. After that (what do I need to build the disk for Windows?) I was thinking of putting Win2K Pro on my notebook....

MY notebook is a PIII 700mhz, 128mb ram. I could upgrade the ram to 256 for like $30. Would this handle Win 2K alright? Or should I stick with 98SE? I use my notebook about 60+ hours a week.
