The AzTeC Free-Net is a worthy-cause non-profit .org
(501c3 I think)
and I am pretty certain that they can put any machine
to use well -- dinosaur or not.
My first few years accessing the Aztec Free-Net,
from home I used a dial-up connection from an old
DOS machine with a 286 and ONE mb of RAM.
(1024 KB).
I think it was too small for even the relatively smaller
WINdows in those days (3.1 say), and I am not sure
whether it could have run Gnu/Linux (I never tried).
However, Aztec was (still is) mainly text oriented
(not exactly command line, more like multiple-choice
"menu" oriented) -- e.g. it runs Lynx for its web
browser.
Please contact
"Randy Wertz" <
rwertz@aztecfreenet.org>
for info about how to have someone from AzTeC
come to pick up the machine.
(such as me) (but I am in Iowa temporarily)
And thank you very much.
