raymac46 Posted August 10, 2017 Share Posted August 10, 2017 This would have been of interest to me if I were starting college these days since as a student I had very limited cash reserves. Nice to see the word getting out there. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RCOEGWxPfMA 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abarbarian Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 The only downside I can see to videos like this is that when folks catch on to using linux on old kit the price will rise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raymac46 Posted August 11, 2017 Author Share Posted August 11, 2017 (edited) Possibly true. However this T61 in the video is pretty old so I can't see it being that expensive ever. The last 3 laptops I've fixed up for Linux, 2 were giveaways. The third one is a Thinkpad T430 which is in lovely shape and I got at a substantial discount from new. There are still a lot of people out there who don't see the value of Linux on old machines Edited August 11, 2017 by raymac46 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
