Use them as thin clients. Build a decent box with a little power and then set them up to boot from floppies and run as diskless thin clients. Check out ltsp.org for more information on how to do so. Let me know if you have questions. Thanks. Rob

I have several old laptops that could live a good life of xterminals. Unfortunately, some don't have hard drives, most have memory less than 64MB, and one is a 486 with 4MB. All can use a pcmcia ethernet card.
What do most people do with these? Are there distributions catering to these or do I have to build them myself?
I'd hate throw them away. They use so little power, have well designed hardware, and look nice. _______________________________________________ Kclug mailing list [email protected] http://kclug.org/mailman/listinfo/kclug
