Hmm... I suppose I could provide different "skins".  Amiga,
Commodore 64, Commodore PET, Apple II, ZX-81, TRS-80, PDP-11
and so on.  It could probably be done with relatively little
overhead.  Nice gimmick.  But it would be only skin-deep.
As soon as they tried to do something, the illusion would be
broken.

On a more practical note, I have finally found a way to get
Netscape to run (16 colors) with the VGA server.  So, it is
now possible to install X+icewm+Netscape using the default
VGA XF86Config.  No complicated configuration needed -- just
download the listed packages, use pkg to install them, specify
which port the mouse is on and startx.  Almost foolproof.

I'm working on the new instructions and modified packages for
install-to-HD and icewm.  Hopefully, it will all be ready by
Monday.

Cheers,
Steven
