Probably already been said somewhere here, but an excellent way to spread the linux message, offering suitable reassembled machines, loaded with Ubuntu or Mint, as long as they are fully set up most people would be able to use them.


if i could put a machine or two together and load with mint 8 what sort of spec would you need them to be,then they could be used at open days lug meets or for whatever purpose the dclug see,s fit. i did try and give away a linux machine on the exeter freecycle sight some time ago but had no takers.
cheers all alex the not so noob

Doesn't have to be a brilliant spec, I'd say a P4 around 2GHz upwards or an Athlon XP 2000+ upwards with 512MB Ram should run okay.
