Over the past decade I’ve been able to continue using old hardware even when Microsoft decided that they were too old for upgrades. The oldest that I had was a 2007 Toshiba with 1,5GB of RAM… sadly had to retire it a couple of years ago but it has definitely paid for itself, thanks to Linux

I try installing linux on people’s old machines to prove to them its not time to throw it out yet… always to great effect… but mixed response. hehe
