Clarify :: I use freeBSD as my 'server' , it is a 300mhz (olddest machine in the house) , with 128/133/SDRR , Its Agp slot melted, yet was given an mx200 or similar,enough for server,not enough to game with, I dont use it for games, i have no monitor nor mouse attached to it. If i need my b0x, I putty to it, if i have something 'serious' to look at, it sits next to this PC , my workstation,so is comfortably close to a moitor,and lets face it, if you can fit a PC in, then cant be much more to get the damn monitor too. So you see this ismy viewpoint, I do not NEED Gnome/KDE etc, so to me , it is a messa nd confusing, the best part about Knoppix is its affiliation to Whitehat, they have beefed up a version wich i use regularly if im doing a resue, still, i search for the commandline quicksmart ;') BTW, Workstation is P4-3gig128meg-Gfx/512meg-DDR, wich runs Windows XP-SP2, i only WISH its uptimes were as good as my Bsd box :( , it has a now uptime of aprox 105 days, im lucky if I can keep a GUI Windows up for 2 weeks, if its hot and i have any overheating issues, worse. Thankyou for taking the time to read, Please heed this boot banner, if it does come into effect at some stage, users would be the best inputters on this, i can say one thing, i would LOVE to see alot more done on 'post-install' , and NOW also very important with phpBB etc, a steady 'security' section, by this i mean discussions,active projects etc Online. Unix is no longer safe in the 2000's... Regards, Drew B. Stop in /usr/b0rk. *** Error code 1 , Im tired ,please try in 30minutes!
