i would recoment trying a custume compililed version of wine first. then i would try codeweavers wine, then i would say, fork over $15 for transgameing's winex. as for winex, it does run sophisticated games/*diablo II would count as sophistacated, and so would freespace I, i have heard other stories of people running quake3 under winex*/ there is also a group of people working on a version of wine to run biowares NWN toolset. i i can say is consume lots of caffiene and try try try and try again

This is getting REALLY GOOD!
I will post a compilation of your votes/suggestions tomorrow and start configuring the box during the weekend.
First issue for you guys to direct my "hands on".
SETTING UP THE DRIVES.
ISSUE: Space for (whatever LINUX) OS you decide on.
partitions ?
how big?
put what where on which drive?
Remember....we have two 1 GIG drives and about a fat fourth of that space will be eaten by the apps.
If this old box we are building could speak, I think that it would say:
quote:It's wonderful to be loved when you are this old and this ugly!
--- End quote ---
I'd rather laugh in my beer than cry in my champagne.

Master of Reality:
15 MB boot parition on the first drive at the beginning.
300MB swap at end of first drive?
the second drive only /usr (700MB) amd /home (300mb)?
I am by no means an exper on partitions. I didnt separate my redhat paritions, they are all under root expect for my boot partition.
Sleeping Dog:
By the way.....CREEDON.....you are not OLD!
you are only 37 in HEX.
Be sure to put that on your resume'
Fun rules!
