   I'd have to give it a try. Alas, I'm so overrun with work that I'm currently   
   using the online stuff from MBSE as a ssh session from work is about the only   
   thing I can do right now.

   apt-get ain't too difficult, but I actually prefer rpm or emerge from gentoo.   
   Actually, the good old Amiga Installer wasn't a bad thing neither, it just   
   couldn't compile programs like some Linux install routines do.   
      
   But then, we usually got the binaries....the good old days of working    
   software   
   and when compiling was a non-issue.
