I don't know, I could imagine the government telling Freedom Scientific(or any other anti-consumer software company), "You can treat the civvies like criminals all you want, but you have to give us copies without the bs."... or such companies offering a clean version of their products for governement use to turn a blind eye to their anti-consumer behavior... or just to ensure most highschool graduates are taught on their software and will be unwilling to consider their more affordable competitors. And yeah, I'd like to at least upgrade the system drive in this old workhorse to solid state or just buy a whole new system, but my budget doesn't have much room for purchasing hardware I don't have an immediate need for... and I don't know the first thing about swapping out ram... still, I like that Linuxactually gives one options when it comes to older hardware beyond "run old version of Windows and hope Microsoft doesn't force an upgrade that effectively bricks your machine due to low specs" or "buy a new machine everytime there's a new Windows version, even when the old one still works fine". _______________________________________________ Blinux-list mailing list Blinux-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/blinux-list
