Although this might be at a tangent, and it involves a
2nd box, but it would be easy to have a 2nd user
running processes on the first box by using ssh and
tcp/ip.

The 2nd box (3rd, 4th) only need be a low end machine
yet would be able to use large applications on the
main box.

My laptop is _much_ faster using openoffice on the
desktop machine (Athlon 800, 390Mb ram) via ssh than
by running it on the p166 processor.. This removes all
complications of specifying screens etc. 

The slave machines might even be able to run from a
floppy, but haven't checked this out..

Regards,

Garry.
