I remember reading an article where someone in the Phillipines booted a clean PC with a boot disk with some network support, and then someone else in Massachussetts installed Linux over the Internet onto the PC!! If there was someone local that had some basic computer skills, we might be able to get some kind of remote school support team together. It would be doable if we found enough volunteers who had free time at various times during the day... definitely easier than trying to remotely administer Win98 machines, believe me! I prefer the prospect of supporting a bunch of Linux boxes across the Internet than a bunch of Win98's even across a WAN. That's my current job, so I know! 8^)

Hi: I think we can find plenty of volunteers. Plus, there should be enough resources to provide redundancy of some sort to hold things, if a problem does come up, maybe? Thanks, Tom Poe Reno, NV http://www.studioforrecording.org/ http://www.ibiblio.org/studioforrecording/ http://renotahoe.pm.org/
