I remember when I went full-in with Linux about 5 years ago.

Hell yeah — you had to work at it to get it upgraded.

Vaguely.

I loved Win2K Pro.

Stable as heck.

I still have copies of WinMe!, Vista and Win95 that came with STILL functional Panasonic Toughbooks.

Couple weeks ago I found one of the really tough Toughbooks that wouldn’t turn on, in a thrift shop for $5.
Brought it home, took out the battery and held the power button and it booted right up.
