Who asked you that? I'm asking as I'm the moderator of the echo.

I worked out a deal on some computer work recently and I wound up with an
older Dell Insipiron 3558 laptop. I slapped 16GB RAM and a spare 512GB SSD in
it, put Slackware Linux on it and now, even with a little i3 4-core processor,
it work decently enough. Bought a new keyboard and battery for it also (thank
goodness for eBay) but the new keyboard stinks...real cheap build quality.
I'm hoping to scrape up enough cash soon to get a Thinkpad to replace the one
I lost a few months ago...
(No recipe for now; too difficult to put one in while SSHing into the BBS
machine...)
