Re: [Freedos-user] Installation as standalone system

There is no need for sound, I don't think I even need a network connection. I'm looking to get a system that is at least 3-4 years old, maybe even older. The only reason to get a newer one is to get some extra speed. This clown speaks for himself > On Feb 3, 2016, at 1:33 PM, Corbin
