Now that makes a lot of sense... WIndow gaDGET. I would never have thought of it. Btw, why did you choose to install FreeBSD instead of Linux? What do you find are the advantages? And is the install easier than RH 5.1 Linux? I have RH 5.1 Linux at home already. I haven't installed it yet, because I'm waiting to get my 1.2 GIG WD back from WD. I don;'t yet have FreeBSD, though it's pretty cheap at $39.95... pjus taxes, of course. We don't want to forget the Gubment. ;o) G.R.
