Do you by any chance know if that's an intel based or a motorola based CPU
mac?  2009 could go either way.  The amazing thing about Macs that I have
experienced is that they do have great longevity.  Before I became disabled
and knew I had trouble I bought a really nice Mac Pro (the one that looks like
the round trashcan) with the intel xenon processor.  It will probably be the
last new computer I will ever have.

Last October, my brother passed away, and I inherited his nice Dell laptop
which I am currently running my BBS on.

I also have a couple of older e-machines that I'm going to load linux on,
unfortunately they have been stored in a garage that was not climate control
so I'm not expecting them to work.  If they work it will be great.
