@mangeurdenuage Do I miss those simple days, or do I just wish I was 30 again?

Love that shortcut to Solitaire that someone apparently duplicated by accident. -

It was a little slow from day one. It got worse with each update, so when it got to where I'd turn it on and wait almost an hour before it was ready to use, I installed #SuSE (briefly) and then #Gentoo. Eventually, I added RAM and got it to 1G but by that time, for the same price, I could have bought something much faster.
Toward the end of its life, I used it only as a print server. It went into electronics recycling around 2014. -
