Sam, I could not agree with you more here, with the exception of 'old hardware' equals 'old distribution'. BTW, if you are interested in getting a inexpensive CD burner there is one at General Nanosystems for $40: http://www.nanosys1.com/cdr-lo-52-32-52.html I have one, it works nice. Good luck, Troy >>> smac at visi.com 10/19/03 08:07AM >>> I use old hardware because thats what I have and can afford. So I use older distributions because it runs faster on old the hardware. I don't even have a CD burner because I can't afford one. I'm not poor but I have other more important priorities then the latest and greatest hardware. _______________________________________________ TCLUG Mailing List - Minneapolis/St. Paul, Minnesota http://www.mn-linux.org tclug-list at mn-linux.org https://mailman.real-time.com/mailman/listinfo/tclug-list
