I am talking to a small group of educationists who are suffering the
familiar MS squeeze.  The PC's running Win95 are aging, the software is
still as bad as it was when written bakc then, and need to move sometime
soon into a better but affordable environment.  They have limited funds.
There are six of them.  They are in a school environment but because they
are not part of the school itself, do not have access to the cable feed that
the school enjoys.  They are a potential reference site for schools in the
Wellington area to install thin client Linux.  They can afford a 1.8gHz
headless server with two NICs.

Is anyone with the necessary skills or ambition interested in adopting this
unit?  I would like to but I am not ready to operate at the necessary level
to install such a set.
