It would be interesting to know if any of the crippled machines had ever had 
Mandrake, or any Linux, installed previously. i.e. is this new to 9.2 or is 
it new hardware?

Equally, can any of them run Windows 9x family? (Dell no longer support the 
Win9x family, so they don't care if their hardware is trashed by it.)
