Actually yes. I usually use ports over packages as it gives me a warm
fuzzy feeling.
There's more to computers than the internet (oh no! sacrilege). :-) It
actually resides behind a firewall that I can't get it past at this stage.

I practice writing c programs in my lunch hour. I've installed apache for
use on our intranet. I've installed other programs that I want to learn
about as well.

By the way, I'm not putting down your idea I'm just giving my point of
view.
