Ok, my personal situation.

I have two desktops that my wife and I use regularly. I have 3 linux
computers (my cluster which has yet to be named) one will have a modem in it
and be the dial on demand. I would like to share this connection and
ability to have it connect at need to the two desktops. From there,
learning how to set up the email filters and firewall and such would make it
that much better.

Any know where I can get a cheap 19" rack?
