That's kind of cool, with the new utilities... I will check that out too. 
thanks.

Will do.. I took a brief look the other day, even have a contribution 
section on installing WordPerfect 2000, which I have, as well as VMWare, 
etc. I saw Leon's tag line, and he mentioned he was using it as a 
workstation.  Will definitely check into it thoroughly.. Libranet very much 
reminds me of what Progeny Debian had, which was an absolutely great 
distro.. too bad no one wanted to pay for a Debian distro. I hope Libranet 
does well.
