Warren and Ray, Thanks for today's tips. I will bring a server with the POS program to the installfest for piddling if there is time. When I get done with my other priorities today, (review, etc), I could set up access to the POS program here at the house through ssh. It might make it easier to chew on with the things you are discovering. Also, I will make copies of Counterpoints installation cd. It can be installed and run in a demo mode by anybody with or without a license. This is enough to test different ideas.
scott this comes from a successfully installed mandrake distro on an original ibook. more to come on the experience one day, but, it was mandrake, ruler of happy friendly linux installs. you can guess how it went. debian is next.
