My old 486 chugs along quite well as such. Cheap wired cards too ($1 bin at
local used PC store). They had some nice deals on 166/200 MHz Dell Optiplex
boxes as well, but I doubt you live in Bakersfield...
I don't know what the wireless cards require w.r.t. hardware, though. Maybe
this is all wet...
