Actually i tried an RH 7.3 install like that, running text from the 
command line.  It was interesting, but i think a bit more of a challenge 
than my elementary students want to handle.

What i want to run are mainly educational and development programs.  
Chess is a priority.  Any kind of math drill programs are very much 
appreciated in our environment.
