"Are you an owner of an old laptop or a slow computer? Maybe you just
don't have the money to buy a new one at this point of time? Don't
worry. Ira Hyman gave his presentation on a seven year old 500 MHz
laptop using PCLinuxOS. He surfs on the Internet and does his daily work
without any problems. Like many other people I took away a free
PCLinuxOS CD. Having installed it after the meeting I've been using the
distro for a month now. I have never had to restart my computer and all
its applications run perfectly."




Not that I don't mind a little extra publicity from time to time, but
in an age of $300 computers at Wal Mart, do you really think people are
going to use Linux just to bump up an old computer?


Well, I would hate to tell you how many OLD computers I've refurbished
and given away to people that can't afford anything. Most in the 400 to
500 MHz range. There ARE people out here that can't afford to buy the
newest wiz-bang computers. Anything to wring a little more out of old
box's would be a great idea.
