Ahh, I made the mistake of thinking you meant something like a Cisco Catalyst 
of Juniper router, or managed switches.  The IT does seem pretty ideal for 
quick and dirty management of those consumer-end devices you mention.  In fact, 
I should try it next time I needto configure one!

Agreed.  I went ahead and tried the Gmail Docs and spreadsheets, and it did not 
work: would not accept the browser version.  I think that would be the ideal 
solution, since the IT will be hard-pressed to keep up with the data storage 
requirements of many users' e-mail usage.  It could be done with large flash 
cards, but seems easier just to let Google handle all the data.  Assuming you 
don't mind that they have it.

I also tried to install Gnumeric, as I liked what I saw on my XUbuntu 
installationn.  No dice, it just failed without an error.
