    it needs to have a basic gui.grahic shell with a dos driver for a serial mouse,maybe like norton tools,commander ,i.m setting up smart broadband ,have it setup on my laptop,now, i need to set it up smart this pc, i have to install win98se, to get usb support, pc has no 10/100 rj45 card.just usb.getting 3meg /persec on smartbroadband,its very fast.
