No,Really...I'm No Daisy!

This message appears courtesy of my 'vintage' 1997 NT4 workstation.
First I downloaded device drivers for the PCI ethernet adapter it inherited, using my main W2k computer..
Installed that.
Connected to my router.
All okay, so I downloaded SP6 for NT.
Installed.
Tested my precious VS97 installation.
All worked.
Downloaded IE6.
Installed.
Re-tested VS97.
Okay.
And now I'm posting from another part of the house on a computer which cost £10, using an OS no longer supported.
And I'm getting LAN speeds.
Not bad eh?
