Flippin’ Libtards strike again..

The plain fact is, there is tons of older equipment out on the used market for pennies, and I do mean pennies on the dollar.

The problem is *gasp* the wouldbe internet user has to learn how to work on the hardware and install software that works on those older boxes and laptops, that would be marketable skill to earn, yet “Nanny” cannot have the peasantry learning how to make Linux or some old Microsoft OS work that would removed the need for “Nanny”.

30 dollars/free linux distro/wireless hotspot..

Those folks are psycho like Kathy Bates in Misery, once they come in contact, they never want you to leave.

You gotta beat them to death with an old typewriter and set them on fire.

We used to take old hardware and "refurbish" it, complete with fresh O/S install (Win95/98 or Linux), modem and browser, for folks who couldn't afford machines. But the demand for that went to zero several years ago (12/2006 was the last, if I recall correctly) and a couple years ago I wound up hauling a (small) car full of old computers and monitors to a "recycling event" in Seattle.

No, these people all need to have top-of-the-line brand new equipment. Just think how this will stimulate the economy! Of China. /s

Bingo.

Frowning takes 68 muscles.
Smiling takes 6.
Pulling this trigger takes 2.
