   So it seems. But it is a Duron 600 MHz anyway, so I don't know
how much faster it will seem to run.

On another topic:
     There is a new Linux version of F-Prot available. (Anti-Virus). 
It is available as a .tar.gz package as well as RedHat and Debian.
This was much easier to install than the previous one. It is a statically
compiled executable, and runs very well in BL2.

Regards,
         Ron
