Moving to Linux
About a month ago, I had made a comment on slashdot about and old P4 that I have. It’s just sitting collecting dust as I don’t have the cash to buy any memory for it. I don’t want to toss the computer, because it shouldn’t be in a landfill. It should be recycled, but there’s really nowhere around here that could do that. A generous guy, who just happens to be from New York, sent me several sticks of RAM so I could get the computer up and running. I now have a computer that I can muck about with as I learn Linux and don’t have to worry about screwing up my other computer when I really need it.
So, I’ve created a new category on my blog called Linux to document my adventures in finally learning Linux. This is a picture of the memory this nice gentleman sent me and it’s my first step to a whole new world.
what ever happened to that old computer? and i think learning linux would be fun!

That’s the one I gave to you. As you can tell, I really wanted to do something with it, but had to realize I was never going to have the time to do it for several years. This way, you can get some use out of it and, in a few years when I have the time, I can move over to Linux.
I’ve already decided I’m not moving to Windows 8, so, once this computer dies, it will be Linux for everything for me.
