That's great. Someone in our local LUG donated to fairly old machines (one running Windows and another running Puppy Linux I believe) to a local nursery. I gather from what they said, the Windows machine wasn't used much but the Linux machine was very popular! Seems like a great idea for an old machine that might not be quick enough for Internet but perfectly good for simple games and educational programs.
