It's late at night, but I just ran this on a RaQ4 I have here at the
house... it's not up-to-date, so some of these may not be the same as on
current RaQs, and I might have not looked properly for some of these by
name, but anyway...

He's never going to be satisfied on the RaQ.  If you start trying to
please him on a RaQ, you'll spend a lot of time (and perhaps money) and
have a system that can no longer be maintained using Sun Cobalt
packages.

He really needs his own server.  You can rent him a server in the us$100
range.  It'll be quicker than a shared server, and can be setup
according to his own specifications.

Contact me offlist for further information if you'd like.
