Although it would teach me about GUIs and OOP, it would spend most of its time handing netnews and net mail all by itself in a location where it might not get visited for several days at a time. Therefore, it would not be good if the box won't reboot itself after a power-failure. Is this something in the software that can be easily fixed? Or, is it a hardware/rom problem?
