  PROGRESSIVEWORLD.NET: REVIEWS BY TOM KARR
This Magrathea project is actually the work of only two men, Glen Alexander who tackles the keyboards and drum kit, as well as handling all the vocals, and Gary Gordon on guitars and bass.
Magrathea's music sounds to me like the result of having listened very carefully to Genesis from The Lamb Lies Down On Broadway on through And Then There Were Three.
This disc from Magrathea certainly deserves a listen from all of you and, moreover, this disc shows a band that is worthy of some support and commitment from a label that can give this album the distribution and promotion it warrants.

Entry: Magrathea) Far back in the mists of ancient time, in the great and glorious days of the former Galactic Empire, life was wild, rich and largely tax-free.
The home of this industry was the planet Magrathea, where hyperspatial engineers sucked matter through white holes in space to form it into dream planets -- gold planets, platinum planets, soft rubber planets with lots of earthquakes -- all lovingly made to meet the exacting standards that the Galaxy's richest men naturally came to expect.
But so successful was this venture that Magrathea itself soon became the richest planet of all time and the rest of the Galaxy was reduced to abject poverty.

If you are asking whether you can do this INSTEAD of setting it up on Magrathea, then the answer is no. We require access to your entire server tree, and Unix file space, and this is much easier on Magrathea.
To summarise, then, you should work carefully AND COMPLETELY through the ON-LINE notes, carrying out EVERY topic exercise in order (without skipping any or changing their sequence), and referring to the Laurie and Laurie textbook whenever you are directed to by the on-line notes.
Connection to Magrathea then follows a similar process to that described above, but these third party programs like QVT/Term and Teraterm provide a number of other useful features and are much more sophisticated and friendly than the inbuilt telnet program.
