Farewell Skolem, the PIII packet-pusher

Skolem was a Pentium III mobile with 128MiB RAM, a 20GiB travelstar HD, and a dock! The dock was important since the LCD was completely shot, and it had two PCI slots (with Lite-on tulip clones) which enabled routing duties. Skolem was my router for many years, taking over after my Ultra 5 started failing, and even survived a DSL to cable ISP change.

I acquired it from a friend who had used it to write Linux driver support for the on-board the ESS Maestro-3. It was an early production unit, and the LCD went from flaky to failed as it aged, but it worked fine with external video. I later acquired a dock for it from another friend who had one laying around from a company move.

The on-board 3com 3C905C-TX frequently had underruns with NetBSD-5, but it was an occasional thing and never seemed to impact traffic. It was easily able to handle my 50/10mbit cable connection, and use of ALTQ made the DSL years bearable as streaming use started to increase. A couple times during DSL outages, I was able to get PPP working for EDGE connectivity on my GSM flip phone. Speed was akin to fast dialup, but it was better than no connectivity at all. I couldn’t boot with ACPI enabled, even after updating BIOS; never bothered to track that one down.
