I'll be trying it soon.
The next time I get to my mess of a storage room, I am going to dig up an
IBM/Lenovo (dual-badged) ThinkCentre desktop--the SFF one that's longer than
it is wide with the top that pops open--and get ArcaOS on it. The Dell I have
is just too big for this tiny room and that ThinkCentre can sit on a shelf
(albeit a well-reinforced one since it's rather heavy). I have been thinking
about moving my BBS to it since it would save a lot of floor space.
I currently have my entire ham radio shack and the BBS in a little tiny 8x8'
room in a shed here on the property. At one time, I had 10 computers, two
printers, and several amateur radios stuffed in here. That all got moved out
for the most part and now I just have my HP EliteDesk 705 SFF desktop running
W10 for my personal and ham radio usage with the BBS on the floor.
What I really like about ArcaOS is that I can print to my HP OfficeJet 4630
printer without many problems.
