I'm amazed that as cheap as used laptops are these days that terminals still exist. Last time I checked one could get a decent laptop for X or VNC that has ports for VGA, keyboard and mouse and do a minimum of 1024x768. In fact the laptop I mentioned in the message you quoted is set up just like that. I rarely ever travel and when I do I just ask my host if I may install VNC and/or PuTTY before heading out. Because of that the laptop sits underneath a 15" monitor and is almost exclusively in VNC these days. I would ditch Win2k completely except for three problems. 1: I use this as my Shareaza machine when I am looking for files on G1/G2 or ed2k. 2: I sometimes run ACExplorer. 3: It has neither a floppy drive or CD-ROM to actually get Debian onto it in the first place. :/ -- Steve C.
