Umm ... for instance, what gets left off?

I definitely need stuff like perl, mysql, apache,

Thanks for the recommendation, but (a) buying stuff is
not in my power to do right now; (b) I need it
*tomorrow* if possible; (c) the owner of the company
I'm working for will hand deliver 9.1 it to me tomorrow
or the next day -- free, of course.

That's good news.

Why do I feel like someone who's just been told: "This
