The staff didn't think so. They knew all the specs going in and I'm turning people down due to limited supply. Next batch will be in a few months and those are already spoken for. For everyday tasks, they're actually pretty decent perfomers. It's called a win-win. I get rid of old equipment without having to deal with recyclers and I reclaim storage space. They get a free computer and monitor with a legal, fully patched and freshly installed OS and oodles of free/open source software already installed (and on a CD if they need to reinstall or want to install on another PC). Heck, the siren song's pull is so strong, even my MacZealot manager is getting one. ************************************************************************ * ==> QUICK LIST-COMMAND REFERENCE - Put the following commands in <== * ==> the body of an email & send 'em to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <== * Join the list: SUBSCRIBE COMPUTERGUYS-L Your Name * Too much mail?
