I bet it is a heap problem...I have some issues regarding internet
usage with my mp2000 also. Even 5 minutes of Newtchat bogs my newt
down...
I have a 2100 motheboard but i do not opening it just yet. Anyway, i
mainly use Newt for email, not for web. Perhaps your best move is to
buy a 2100 mb for 20$. (Or even cheaper).
Using san garbage collection software may give you more time online
also. NewtTest does a good job (Thanks Frank!)
