Thanks for the advice, with luck I'll install everything this weekend. I
currently have access to the Linux distributions of SuZe, RedHat, Mandrake
and Devian. (I have them on CD's) 

I'll be bugging since Monday.

Again Thanks.

C ya

If you are going to go the cheapbytes route, grab a BSD or two
and try those out as well.

Might as well see how the other half lives :)
