In learning of this machine from here, and my sister asking me all the time to build her a cheap computer, I thought i'd give this a shot. She's been running it fine for a little over a month now running win2k with no problems. I actually did a test and originally had her try using it for the 1st week with the preinstalled Lindows. Bad idea. Redhat is more user/application friendly than Lindows. I was very dissapointed with it. It was just a form of debian with tons of basic linux utils remove and lots of missing libraries and such not installed so getting even the simplest of apps for her to play with installed (gaim, tux racer, lbreakout) was either a pain or just not possible (within my patience). Finally I gave up trying to bandaid it for her and teach her a bit of linux and just installed win2k. No problems so far.
