I'll be using stuff I already own. I have several 10 year old Dell
laptops - the cheap type and a Seagate Backup Plus that I bought some
time ago and never used.
I have what I call a junkyard of used computers. Most bought new 8 - 10
years ago and upgraded to SSD. All are Linux viable. All bought on sale
- Back to School or Black Friday.
