Nice!
My "daily drive" is a Dell P-II 300 on which I'm running RedHat 9.0. It
was a freebie from a friend who cobbled it together from the scrap bin at
the company he works at, after my old laptop was stolen from a convention
we were both at. It was literally assembled from stacks of random laptop
parts on a shelf.
I asked him if I'd left my P-166 Latitude in his suite after the party...
he said "I didn't find any antiques there", and he offered to build me
a replacement after it was clear that mine had grown legs.
The only thing I really "lost" with the old one was two weeks of work on
ZDungeon that hadn't been backed up yet.
