Which is why I mentioned that by networking the two, you could also use the second machine as a backup server. I do this because my working machines have to keep working. All backups are automated, from one machine to the other. If something fails I have immediate access to all software, configurations and, most importantly, data. My home directory is backed up hourly, so recovering from a failure should not take much longer than that. -- Neil Bothwick An infinite number of monkeys pounding away on keyboards will eventually produce a report showing that Windows is more secure, and has a lower TCO, than linux.
