HI FOLKS:
Am retired senior. Have very old, slow, tired Gateway desktop. Seeking good
used AMD dual core tower, to finally bring my home pc into the 21st century.
When I find one, was pondering installing Linux on old pc, so I can spend time
familiarizing myself with the system. Is this a good way to go?
Am in the dark on how to access the internet on a Linux-based pc. Live in New
England and have Fairpoint Communications for home phone/ internet service and
they don't support Linux. Is there a way around this?
Having answer to these questions will help to get me started.
Just read about a program called Mepis and it seemed like a good starting
point. Comments on this?
Thank You in advance. TTFN. Old Tom aka papasmurf
