I have slightly more rescued laptops than rescued catz. I have to feed the catz. Costs $$s. Who has $$s for OSes that don't/won't do what I want?

Linux it is. One on the house for that tall robot across the room. The one freaking out the catz by following them with the noisy webcam. LOL!

Rescued Laptops? Hey, listen, I have Linux distributions on Pentium III machines ($50 for the IBM T20) plus a poor man’s solid state drive (<$15 for the IDE/adapter + $20 for the Flash Card) and Ubuntu/Mint/Puppy yielding a “disposable laptop” for <<< $100.

Talk about 9 lives.

I never fear a lost, stolen or broken laptop.
