The C64 is the best Linux system
Date: 29 Nov 2003 18:57:30 -0800
With its massive 64K RAM and modern 5.25" disks, the C64 is the best
system for Linux today.
I think PCs will not be able to run Linux in the next 10-15 years,
maybe a Sinclair Spectrum can , but I donīt know.
In the meantime, the Apple II is the only alternative as a modern
Linux system.
