My wailing and gnashing of teeth related to the basic installation, before you 
get to the package management. I just could not get it to work at all!

It wasn't the $50 for a CD-ROM drive that bothered me, it was the fact that I 
couldn't get the installation to work from floppies at all. But if you got 2.1 
to work, hopefully I can too!

Thanks again
