This is the type of advice I was looking for :)

Just so you know, I wasn't *about* to install anything; not without hearing 
from this group first!!! I have 2 sides, server and client; only the server 
would go on the RAQ, the client is PC based. Does this change your mind on 
anything - what would be the correct questions to ask this company before I 
even think about thinking about putting this on my RAQ3i. I guess I'll 
start with *which of this stuff do I need for just the server*; *do I need 
X-Windows*. Any others?

THANKS!!!!!!!
