running under system 7 is not that great of an advantage.  right now 
i'm administrator on a 2.01 system (all macs :( ), and share 
administration on a 4.0 server.

4.0 is fun, ya whoo.

2.0 does everything we need it to do.

now then, about server volumes... if you need more than the one with 
server folder on it under 
2.0, just repartition the drive.  or heck, even software partition the 
drive (norton partition utility for example).

mounting & unmounting volumes by taking the server down isn't that big 
of a deal if you've only got 2-3 machines running off the server.

2.0 is fine.

I use an Apple II+ clone.  It's probably faster than your machine,
unless you run on a SPARC station.
