What is a good setup for two machines, Desktop P3 650 256MB RAM +
Laptop 2.6MHz 512 RAM ?

The laptop is almost just to my liking, sid running a custom compiled
2.6.9. I have an internal winmodem in the laptop, which works. All I
have right now is dial-up. On the desktop I have another USR Serial
modem as well, although I do not have a network card in there yet.
Planning to buy one soon.

I would highly appreciate some cues as to what would be an appropriate
set up for this, in terms of networking, splitting tasks between the
two machines etc. I currently have exim4, firehol, apache, squid etc.
running well on this laptop. My /var/cache/apt has 3.1G of sarge/sid packages
which I painfully downloaded over a dial-up at measly speeds. Need to
put that to good use as well.

Thank you for your time.
