If you do talk about services, there is the time to start looking into
other TLDP docs and point to the appropriate ones where possible, but I
agree that as far as the other parts are concerned, this can be a separate

What I would appreciate in such a HOWTO is which distro to choose, as the
standard ones will be overkill and maybe to heavy to run on old PCs.
