Old computers rock… I am
Old computers rock… I am using a three year old Sony VAIO Z505RX, it’s a p2-400. My main desktop machine (Linux, of course) is a P3-933, my server is a P3-833, but my other machines are dominated by a P2-266, a P1-133, and several old (some more than ten year old) Sun boxes. Linux runs on all of them! 😉 Many of you know that I have been working with Peter Ford on “SchoolBlogs”. Peter is a teacher at the British School of Amsterdam. I recently found out he’s been working all this time on a Pentium I windows95 machine with 16 Megs of Ram. Woah! He’s been Running “radio” on that machine as well! Today I’m dropping off a nice Powerbook with OSX, can’t wait to see the results of his upgrade 🙂 [Adam Curry: CurryDotCom]

The following will give you a little of the history of the game, and give you the confidence to step up to the table next time you’re in the casino, put some cash on the table and say “change, no action.” [kuro5hin.org]
