It's cheaper than another PC and will do damn near anything a > normal box will do. I have a p3-650 lappy with 256MB of RAM, and that is (by FAR) my most equipt box. My p150 was free, so it doesn't get any cheaper that that. ;) I've got LFS installing on a different drive than the host OS too, so I didn't need to change any partitions or anything on the original drive, and either one (or both) could be put in different machines later... I'm already most of the way through LFS, but I may consider this for future reference, since I've been thinking of trying out other distros to see what they are all about for myself. Even though I've already used three, I don't really count the first two since I didn't know what I was doing, and undoubtedly got frustrated with them because my ignorance and I had messed something up. ;) Lorry
