UX to NT?

Not sure if this is the appropriate forum..but here goes.

I have a G40 sitting doing NOTHING. Thought crossed my mind to see about changing it into a NT Server.

Is that even possible, and if so is there a white paper out there somewhere that will discuss correct installation/upgrade approach?

Have I lost my mind even considering "messing" with this G-Box? It most likely won't server in purpose more than an e-mail server / or contain a run a database for ADP. Maybe.

Would like to know if it's even feasible.

Thanks in advance,
Rebecca Harding

If there is an NT that runs on PA-RISC.
Not sure if one exists.

Instead of NT (which I'm not sure exists, or if they'd even be viable in the future), I would invest my time in the Linux Architecture for PA-Risc System (make a GREAT E-Mail/DNS/SNMP/ ...... Any Server.

This has taken some time in the making, but I'm sure that it's worth the effort.
