I haven't looked at Horde in a while.  I went online and reviewed the
docs and googled around to do a quick evaluation of Horde, and I
concluded that there would be nothing quick about doing an evaluation
of Horde.

Is there any kind of installation doc that JUST WORKS?  I found lots
of install docs that look like they'll need heavy adaptation, but
nothing that simply works.  I don't care what distro it uses as long
as it is at least free as in beer.

Preferences in order:
1.  A liveCD or something that will just install a working VM.
2.  A virtual appliance that can be made to run on virtualbox.
3.  A set of line-by-line install instructions with a reference to a
specific version of a distro that it works on.  Install instructions
include ALL pre-requisites beyond running the distro's own installer.
It must get you from stock distro to fully configured and running
Horde/IMP.  I don't need it to be integrated with anything I already
have, or if it runs as root on the box/mysql, or whatever.  I just
want to see what it is like before I invest the 75 hours that are
likely needed to get it working on my own server...  :)
