Hmm.  I know DoD.  Had to tell them recently that RHEL 4 isn't supported 
on any of the hardware they can buy next year so they have to pay to 
upgrade/port to RHEL 5.  We'll see if that line item makes the cut into 
the budget.

Since they want old, old linux can you convince them to get you an old, 
old laptop.  (Someone is bringing a libretto.  You can get a serial port 
for that.  Maybe you can do a trade.) :-)

The hard thing is stuff like there's no SATA driver and your laptop only 
has SATA.  But it sounds like you can build your own kernel.  So if you 
can get that to work with old gcc you're set...  Sounds like maybe 
you've solved the economic slowdown, at least at a local level.

Be fun to look at tomorrow.
