I too dont play games, though the original post made me try nethack. I've been too busy to pursue it, but it wasn't bad. I just wanted to chime in about old machines. I had a 500 mHz Pentium that actually ran as my backup machine for quite some time, until a few months ago, when I had to clean house for the gf. Everytime one of my main machines went down because the motherboard died or the processor died or something else died, this thing fired up and ran as a stand in for a regular desktop for my school work. FreeBSD + fvwm2 worked just fine. If I remember correctly, I even used OpenOffice. It made things a little slow, but it was definitely usable, so papers were finished, programs were written :) The last time used it, I ran it as a webserver for a website to manage a group project for one of my professors. In return, I got an internship in Berlin. That's what I'm in the middle of right now. All in exchange for taking someones "trash". Bye everyone -- Chris
