Hard to say with the Gentoo stuff, as I had to restart a couple of 
times.  The Gentoo install still could be measured in days. :)

I started the Slack install this morning about 9:00 am.  But with it 
too, I'd let it's do it's thing and turn to it when I had time.  Still 
the Slack was less then 1/2 a day.

I don't think I'll run X on the 486. :)

I didn't have to buy my radio from a specific company to listen
to FM, why doesn't that apply to the Internet (anymore...)?
