Quite welcome. The names behind Progeny are definitely notable - Bruce

Yep. When it comes to running X, speed is nice, but Memory is key. Note
that Progeny is designed to be a desktop system, so it will take some

Hee... I may do the same. Assuming I leave my system at home that is. I
found out today that the employee co-location room was upgraded two weeks

router with dual OC-3 backbone circuits. Oh, the temptation of it all....
