I can't think of a better use of server resources... I really can't.

I dual boot the latest Beta of RH and XP Pro on this machine. I still need windows for many of my games.

I have Mandrake Linux on this system on another partition. Unfortunately, something messed up, so it's not booting now. And I'm worried to get rid of it because I need LiLo in the BIOS and I don't feel like messing with that yet. So until I get that all figured out, I'm stuck on Windows.
"There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under heaven: a time to be born and a time to die, time to plant and a time to uproot, a time to kill and a time to heal, a time to tear down and a time to build, a time to weep and a time to laugh, a time to mourn and a time to dance, a time to scatter stones and a time to gather them, a time to embrace and a time to refrain, a time to search and a time to give up, a time to keep and a time to throw away, a time to tear and a time to mend, a time to be silent and a time to speak, a time to love and a time to hate, a time for war and a time for peace."
