Why? Low-Spec laptops are pretty cheap, especially refurbished ones.

It’s a matter of Principle for me, and maybe some stubbornness.

I have a machine that functioned very well when it was built and “IT Didn’t Know what would come after IT”

It should run as a stand alone machine.

That’s the first challenge I face.

I’m now 2 hours into my second attempt to get an OS, Vista, installed and working.

Makes no sense.

It would be really cool if I had even a basic DOS prompt and could wipe the drive clean. But I digress.
