Too bad old machines are so hard to get rid of. I've got a Compaq Deskpro 4000 P166MMX that I literally cannot give away. I've even posted messages on a local message board to anyone who wants to stop by my house and just pick it up for free. No takers.

How does that even run photoshop 6?

The way to get rid of those old machines is to load some kinda firwall software on them and sell them as that. I have unloaded a couple of P100's/133's this way. HIPAA
regs require more security now and many doctor's offices are still in the computer dark ages. Running with no hardware or software firewall between them and the rest of the world. As a former benefit analyst (i should start looking for another job soon), I'm well aware of the req's of the new HIPAA laws and have had no problem convincing these Dr. offices of the benefits of running IPCop or Smoothwall. Just an idea. With the right software, these old machines become quite valuable to certain sectors of the community.[

I'm not really interested in the comp but what do you think is a better os linux redhat 7.1 or linux mandrake 9.1
