ON a positive note , all of us who use linux are helping simply by not forcing new computers to have to made.
This notion keeps popping up among linux people. To actually verify it I suggest you install opensuse 10.3 on a box that's 4 years old. You will not be pleased.
I recently installed suse 10.3 on a compaq box made in 2002, which I'm using as our firewall/dns/dhcp server. Naturally I nuked beagle, but having done that it works and it works well. Before that, our firewall/dns/dhcp server was an old compaq w/ Pentium III 500 and 9 GB drive, running suse 10.1, which also worked quite well.

My firewall, currently running 10.0, is an 866 MHz P3 & 128 MB. I'll have to see how well it handles an upgrade to 10.3. -- Use OpenOffice.org <http://www.openoffice.org> -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
