basic platform

Cyrix Pentium 166+
128MB EDO SIMMS RAM
SCSI Quantum Fireball 2.1 gb HD
Matrox Millennium w 8mb WRAM
NOKIA 21" 


WIN NT 4.0 op sys

Is this platform a good candidate for FreeBSD.  I am in a program where
it is my best interest to learn/use UNIX.  

I also have a

Cyrix 150+
64mb EDO SIMMS RAM
West Dig Caviar 32100 HD
West Dig Caviar 31600 HD
 
WIN 95
WIN 3.1
DOS xx

Is this a better candidate?  Hope not, hate that 15" Mag after using the
NOKIA for a while.



Would like to dual (triple, etc.) whichever ends up with FreeBSD


would prefer to use the server for unix if possible.

What steps, etc.

TIA
