So, what you are telling me is that not only you needed some sleep, but the box did too??;-)
Believe me I understand about the Windows thing. I'm a Govie contractor who likes UNIX, but gets stuck working with PC's all the time. It got so bad after one install, I almost threw out my home PC!
I am also thinking about building a Linux machine for home use. It would work great as a webhost of sorts (I think! Never used the Linux flavor, but love UNIX. I understand it's fairly transparent, within reason.)
Glad you got your problem fixed! Hope to be seeing you around the PM site.
