Yeah, I'm still running openbsd on a dual pentium pro 200 with 96 mb ram as my irssi machine :)

It's almost a miracle that the quantum fireball in it still lives, it's over 20 years old now.

Very impressive setup! If the Fireball ever dies, an SSD or CF card will probably keep the rest of the box going for another 20 years. :)

Why would you bother with the second CPU just for irssi? You would probably notice the energy savings from removing it

I usually ssh into it, so sshd runs on one and irssi on the other. Also, the whole computer is just got fun.

The motherboard also has a UW SCSI interface, but I have no disks left sadly. The 10k rpm Seagate died a long time ago.
