The secret of sell ing older computers in the third world (Yorkshire?) is
not to give a rodents back side about copyrights and just fill the hard
drive with a package of the best stuff that runs on the machine. Too much
work to get one or two machines going unless you had nothing else to do,
but a trivial task if you plan on selling containers of older computers.
Even an old computer is 100% better than no computer, and for strict
business uses 386 and 486 machines work just fine.
