I am thinking outside of the box with the thought of giving staff an IM to use
to IM immediate communications. Do any of you do this and if you have; what IM
software did you use, how did you implement it, how did you teach the staff to
use it, and was it beneficial or not?

Have either of you tried Mandrake 10 or Suse 9.3? They both found all the
drivers in my gateway 450SX laptops - (former BVU machines) - even the wireless
cards. And with SuSE AutoYast updates were slick, checking dependencies as
needed and downloading
before installing.
I run slackware 10.1 on my desk here at school, I have 10.1 that runs my
asterisk server, and 10.1 for my computer at home.
10.1 is very solid. Patrick knows what he is doing! I think the install is
very unbloated and very fast compared to fedora core (I am sure you know how I

I had a heck of a time trying to get the modules loaded for debian as well
as for Fedora Core 3. Then I tried slackware and I was good-to-go on the
first try. Have you tried slack 10.1? It seems rock solid to me and is easy
to install - if you don't mind the text-based installs.
Oh, I read the ot
I understand now. Slackware has always been easy for me to get the correct
modules auto loaded for raid devices. Where I agree debian and Redhat has
sometimes been more difficult to get the correct modules.
I did a full ftp install of debian and it was 2 gigs to downloaded and 8 gigs

Nope, hardware RAID. I've never used software RAID at all.I set it up so
that all of the Linux Machines have the same /home folder. Even the
dual-boot systems. I put slackware on everything because the links from the
home folder are all the same. I could have (and probably will have a few

I have used Slackware for more then 5 years, but I installed debian the other
day becase of it's simple package upgrade system. I have had an issue with
slackware-current breaking things for example slackware-current upgraded libc
from 2.3.3 to 2.3.4 it broke almost everything.

otherwise they would port their OS to wintel machines now. From a

their hardware sales would drop.

I use pearpc to emulate mac os X it does not currently work with 10.4 but
10.3.9 and lower it does. It can be slow at times, but it works well when I am

ppc. But it runs on any X86 based processor. Including on top

Indeed. The newest XBox runs the PowerPC chip, so now the kiddies can load

The Darwin kernel has run on Intel since its inception. The GUI was not
available on the Intel platform so it was all CLI.
As far as thinking that you could run OS X on a PC, that is probably not
going to be true right out of the box. There will probably be safeguards
