It's a computer just like any other computer. The functionality you get depends on the OS you install. Installing Debian on the SS 5 or 10 would give you a system that operates more or less like your PC does. -- Debian - http://www.debian.org/ Linux 1394 - http://linux1394.sourceforge.net/ Subversion - http://subversion.tigris.org/ Deqo - http://www.deqo.com/
