Okay, I thought here would be a good place to ask since I wanted to do it 
with MIPS computers. And I know that any computer right now is faster than 
my 2 old RaQ2's but it's just for the fun of it :) I could do it all with my 
P3 but I love my RaQ2's :)

Thanks for the openmosix tip, I'll have a look
