I have a strict rule at the office: if no one's using it, throw it out.  MY
actual office is always the 'dumping ground' for stuff like that, to the
point where I couldn't walk through it one day, so I had to start tossing
crap.  So, yeah, no keyboards, at least not the USB kind.  I have three
that are PS/2 though ... lot of good they're doing me.

Right ... not going to help me right now though, unless eBay can deliver
within the next 3 hours.

Kickstart ... ok, I'm going to have to dig into that.  I wonder, can I grab
the netinstall ISO, extract the files, and add/modify the necessary files
for bootup that tells it to start vnc (with appropriate options), then
create a new ISO?
