Re: [PLUG] Linux for SPARC?
|
Ah. In that case... I agree. It's frustrating to have all this "useless" old computer stuff that works just fine. Even I'm having a tough time finding work for all of it, since most of what I do either needs a fast computer (like playing Quake, or editing video) or only needs maybe two older computers to handle (firewall/router, email/DHCP/NIS server). I can probably get elks running on this old '286, which is cool, but I'm not sure what I'd do with it? It's frustrating.
