OK then. Makes sense. My work (Government) used to have Imacs with, IIRC, OS
8.something , but they were never interested in OS X. They changed over to cheap
Pentium 4's with Windows NT. Could have been worse I suppose I was expecting them to
go for Pentium III's. I asked our IT people about Linux instead of NT, but the
decision was made way above our heads and long before I got to ask about it. Quite
disappointing, but expected.
I've now got BSD working from Lilo, so that's one problem solved. I'm about to
go fetch some updated HOWTOs for Sound & ALSA, just in case emerge doesn't work
properly. I just tried a new version of ALSA by hand, unsuccessfully I might add, but
the documentation that came with it was abysmal.
See ya, and thanks for your assistance,
