AZ Students : A linux solution?

Alan, good luck on your project and please keep us PLUG'ers posted on
your progress. Your home sounds like the perfect test bed for this
concept. :-) I was thinking of doing something similar for my girls
but I can't get them off the computers long enough to do a reconfig.
:-) I'm still wondering why my 13-year old is thumbing through my
vi/bash books.... *grin* Ok, I know why. hehehe She's living with a
linux geek.

Anyone else thinking of trying this?
