Both 16- and 32-bit versions of Micro-X work well with the WPI thru ethernet.
Forget it with a V.34 modem, however. Unrelated to server choice, you can
improve readability by making the WPI background grey, and using larger fonts,
by customizing the Wpi file (described in the WPI Guide, chapter 11).
