<Old Pentium class computers make excellent kids computers. But if you're
Whats wrong with an old 386 or 486 box? I have a 386sx/16 running W95
and despite what you might believe it's a decent quick and dirty
printserver to a HP4L. Another 286sx/25 has a ISA based logic probe
and analog card in it. I have two 486DX2/66 one running NT4/SP4 on 4.3gb
and the other running Linux (RH5.2) on 500mb, both are a kick to use and
perform surprizingly well. Both support SVGA 1mb, have networking and
CDrom. Don't put down those older and often free to cheap 386/486 boxen.
When did pentium become the required cpu?
