It's mildly tricky to install, but very easy to set up a slave process; I have several. I can offer an image, but what kills me is the maintenance. It's rarely a big deal -- reboot after some updates, install some startup scripts, etc. -- but when it *does* require an effort I hate it off because I dislike Windows so intensely ;). Not a good reason, I know, but... cheers, --titus _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
