You can set your ADSL router to give your "crappy" Linux box a static IP. Now, don't worry about the machine being "crappy". Although I use a Core2 Quad for my mailserver, it does a hell of a lot more than simply play about with e-mail! E-mail is extremely processor un intensive!

Saikee got me stoked some time ago on Grub hiding for multiple, independent WinOS installs on one hard drive. The Vista installer seems to be a different animal though.
