[cobalt-developers] Paperclip Button, Qube1/2700

[fishbowl@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx]

My first question is:

What does the paperclip button really do?  
In other words, can I change its function 
do some arbitrary task? 

Also, some of my story:

I have a Qube 2700 that I'm planning to do
things with that Cobalt wouldn't approve of.

Unfortunately, the only way I have of restoring
it is one of my own backups; the software does not
seem to be available from cobaltnet.com.

Perhaps someone knows if the 2800wg stuff from the
ftp site equals a working fresh install for a qube1.
I'm willing to try it, but maybe not if I'm the only
person in the world with a 2700.

Also, I should go ahead and admit that this qube 
is actually an early, pre-release version that C sent
to ISP's back in the stone age, but now is in my care
as a research um, toy.  I'm far more interested in
the alternative architecture for Linux than I am in
the Cobalt's intended purpose.  That means I'd like to
end up with a debian-ish system, foregoing all the web
driven stuff.  

If this means I need to butt off the list, a kind 
nudge in that direction will suffice; but this poster
hopes for a certain amount of encouragement to keeping
this ancient blue square alive.


Thanks and regards!
