Just to add another counterexample, I burned myself a copy of the LinuxCare BBC, and I used it around St. John's campus to boot the NT workstations off of. With a few config files on my machine in my dorm room, easily scp'able to the workstation, I could set up any workstation on campus to be used as an X terminal to my box. I'd call that practical use :) Though I'm still working on figuring out if I can do the same thing here at Mankato State... Pacem in Terris / Mir / Shanti / Salaam / Heiwa Kevin R. Bullock
