see Subject :)
does that mean that there is some chance of getting my atari 1400ST running apache?
Carpe meam simiam!
Netcraft says it's running Solaris...
That was the sound of a lisa 2 exploding.

This has got to be one of the best slashdot linkages in recent memory. How do you expect anyone to see this reeking Lisa 2 thing if people with pretty major servers go under when slashdot links to them?
"Hey guys, check this out, some guy has managed to wire up an ethernet cable to his parrot's brain, they say if they get over 200 hits/hour his legs will explode. Anyway, here's the link."
NICE.
Putting up a link to a lisa2 webserver on slasdot is like tickeling the old lady's feet who is holding up your car with her bare hands while you change your oil... Nice going... it's crashed.. I bet you're very proud:)

The Lisa web server is pretty cool... But get this...
... FILESERVER. Nobody will beleive me 'cause I had to train a monkey to hit the reset button everytime the monitor flashes blue - so far the monkey is doing ok, but I'm afraid there isn't a enough time for him to eat. Poor monkey.
I've just barly managed to get an Microsoft Windows box to pretend it's a
Next I'm going to attempt to turn my NetBSD Dreamcast into an Indreima video game console, and after that hopefully I can get my TRS-80 to fake three-voice sound by hooking up a speaker to the casette port, another speaker on the video out port and another speaker on the RS-232 port, on second thought, I should just go but a C-64.
Moneyed corporations, non-working 'poor' and criminal prisoners are turning productive citizens into tax-slaves.
I won't be truly impressed until I see an a site being served with a turing machine, run manually by a guy drawing dots on a paper looking at a T1 line terminating in a green LED.
The only danger of this is that is may be the first recorded death due to slashdotting.

You heartless bastards. Couldn't you have given it 'till 7:55 AM?

Poor little Lisa. She was just serving up pages to a few hundred or so of the Mac faithful when the Penguin known as Slashdot set it's lustful eyes upon it. Now, it's bandwidth stuffed to overflowing, the Lisa sits in a corner, weeping openly.

I bet the feds shut it down.
"WHAT? A little girl named Lisa, only 17 years old, and she's on the Internet? We've got to stop this, fast!!!"
We didn't take it down, THEY took it down.
C'mon, it's a Lisa! It should be able to handle the load of a slashdotting. ...And for the next trick, Slashdot will knock down a small child and run away with her candy.
In return for the slashdotting, now I want to see the /. site deployed on an Apple Lisa 2.
Give a man a fish and he eats for one day. Teach him how to fish, and though he'll eat for a lifetime, he'll call you a miser for not giving him your fish.
Terrorists can't threaten a country's freedom and democracy. Only lawmakers and voters can do that.
but it just took ages every time there was a hit having to PRESS PLAY ON TAPE
I've finally had it: until slashdot gets article moderation, I am not coming back.
One Apple Lisa, garage sale....$45
Earthlink dial-up access, one month....$14.99
One 2400-baud modem, used....$15
The pure sadistic delight of slashdotting an 18-year-old computer....priceless
any mirrors? :P
Smeghead every day of the week.
A beowulf-cluster of Lisa's running machttp in a massive geriatric webfarm. Kind of a silicon heaven.
Well just find the place where they buried all the remaining Lisa's in the 80's[1] and your up and running

A lisa 2,and you've sicced Slashdot on it?
You cruel, cruel person...
One of my college roommates (this was about 16 years ago) managed to set up a Hewlett Packard HP-41CV calcuator as a terminal to a PDP 11/70. It was amazing how much effort he put into creating a 3 baud LCD terminal.
This was right before he fried the box by connecting it to a home-built 5 VDC power supply that had a 30 VAC hum.
