I bet it wouldn't have taken a week before people would be beating down her office door demanding that the lab be "fixed" back to the way it was before. Even if you don't get sound working, (and here I'd recommend getting sound cards that are known to work "out of the box" with LTSP rather than play the 'tweak it til it works' game - Terrell mentioned a few), and she does dictate some kind of move to win98 on those boxes, you'll probably be back to linux once people realize what they had.

on 4-5 as a test. That is, if you are really after her job. <GBEG>
