Totally COOL.  
I'm afraid I'm not completely up on the Micros, so I wasn't aware of this 
machine.  I am so glad to see you are not only keeping one running, but 
connected to the Internet as well.  
 
P.S., When I was still working in the Valley, they were raiding 
places like "Weird Stuff" for parts to put together some kind of Computer 
Museum (I think it was supposed to be at Moffett?).  In any event, I heard 
that they have a place now, and are looking for people with functioning 
Micros.  I don't have any details for them, (and I don't even know what part of 
the country you hail from), but because you have your machine on the internet 
(and they therefore can connect with it), you may want to look them up.
 
PPS,
I tell you where there IS definately a need for a Gopher Server of some sort, 
and thats for BeOS (the OS can be run on either a Mac or PC)

It's not an DEC Alpha server, it's an Alpha Micro server. This is a
68000-based quasi-mini architecture running AMOS. I'm not aware of a gopher
client for it, but incredibly it does have a web server. If you want to
see what it does, I do have it connected to my firewall.

I could probably write a Gopher client in AlphaBASIC but I think that
would have an even smaller audience than one for the C64 :) Also, I don't
think I have TAME installed in the machine for the BASIC calls.
