Thanks guys but I should have added to my original message that I intend
to stick with the PIC. I know there are other microcontrollers out there
which might be better suited for this task. My objective however is to
learn more about TCP/IP and struggle through it.

My idea for this project was fired when I heard a couple years back of a
guy who built the smallest webserver by using the smallest 8051 chip he
could get his hands on. I figured if he could do it on such a small chip,
I should be able to do it on a much larger 40 pin PIC 877.

I'll check out the resources you recommended for learning this. Right now
I'm studying the basics of TCP/IP.
