I had a look around, it appears you can set the font server path in the xp.cnf
file.

If you're feeling very geeky, and your PC always sits by your side, you can
mount the motherboard (for the 214M's anyway) inside your case and just wire
the power into your drive cabling itself. The only catch is you need a second
network card.

I've been thinking about this for a day or two, but it requires you to attack the
case with saw and a file. It actually would slot into a MaCase ATX Midi Tower
quite nicely, PCB underside exposed outwards towards the left, facing the
case.
