I like Lubuntu, and I'm dual booting XP and PUPPY on one of my older machines..
well theyre all old by todays standards, but this tower has a sticker on it
that says "optimized for AOL" i've put 2 more hdd in it and more RAM.. and it
is running beautifully... I'm about to stick my POTS server back up to get my
dial up back, and may run an rlogin server from it. or something..
