New Computer
Interesting thing happened today, my mom got a new computer. 2.66GHz Celeron, 40GB HDD, 128MB RAM (PC2700). Pretty basic, but nice for what it will be used for. The interesting thing is, it did not come with Windows, but it did have an os. Yes, it came with Linux. Linspire is the official name of the linux distro (originally known as Lindows, AFAIK). It is based on debian, so it has all the cool programs like dpkg and apt-get. I’ll try to resize the reiserfs partition to only 20GB, and install Win 2K on the other 20. Once I’m tired of the restrictions of Linspire, I’ll put real debian onto it. We also got a printer with the computer for free. Total price? $150.
