Great minds and all that - I'm running FC2 on my box, and 7.3 (Seawolf w/modified kernel) on the firewall box, which believe it or don't is a clapped-out old P166 with only 64MB Ram. Gotta upgrade it one of these days, because any time I'm away and mail piles up, I have to remember to turn off SpamAssassin before I leave, or when I fire up on return SA brings the 166 to its knees. Da Missus hereabouts isn't a computer jock, either, but since she (and I too, truth told) have a certain liking for the various Hoyle Packs, we have to have her running 98. That little Tulip program sure is slick for making an old box into a diskless workstation for accessing the Linux tools. Am breathlessly waiting for the OOo 2.0 "real" release, supposedly due out in, what, 2-3 months? Am a little less panting to upgrade FC2, since I don't see a lot in 4 that is vital to my needs.
