THAT is an excellent suggestion.  I'm doing an OpenOffice install on one 
of my Gentoo Linux ppc64 RS/6000s.  It's been going on for hours and my 
connection went down.  I was able to just go right back into it.  It's 
still going.  And when I go home for the day, I can open it back up 
there.  This is an awesome tool!  Thanks for that.  I've also got my 
Scorched3D game server running on a screen.  Learn something new every day.
