That's easy to do. Another alternative is to have a frequent cron job
that looks for a file in a certain directory and when it finds it it
burns it then moves it out of the way. I know a guy who set up a
similar system for handling report stuff.

FWIW I have a PIII 500/600 laptop to use at work and a Duron 750 at
home. Both work just great and I only peg the CPU when I'm compiling
a large project or something of that nature (which would peg any CPU,
just for a different duration). The only other CPU problem I have is
when I try to do graphics-intensive operations, but that's because I'm
using vesafb. I've never actually used a machine over 1.[012] GHz
(I'm not sure exactly), but I didn't use my brother's WinME machine
much. A PIII-450 is quite decent hardware, IMO.
