Decision time.

Do I stick with Debian on this machine or move back to FreeBSD. I must say I'm not loving the Debian approach. The FreeBSD ports system seems to make much more sense.

Really need something rock solid as well. Using this machine as some quasi database server so I can look at customer data.

The old machine (dual P3 600mhz) was nice and fast. This should be faster.

MS-DOS 3.2 with dBase II.

that the best? thanks zg. i'll purchase and devour.

Um.

One "Collossus" book is a compendium.

The other is written by one chap.

The Hut Six story was banned for a while & reveals (if you can be arsed to actually read it all) how some of the decoding was performed.

Collossus wasn't used for Enigma, but rather decoded the German Lorentz encyphered teleprinter machine.

I can dig out some othe titles if you like.

i can get the titles - i know there are loads. i just wanted a shortcut to the best. too many of them say they are "the best" when in all likelihood they are not.
