I was pleased as most of that era toughbook had 256 or 512 if you were
lucky. I upgraded the drive to 80GB and I dual-boot XP for a couple
apps. Fun machine.
My first linux box, a Redhat 4 machine, ran on a Pentium-133 and had
32megs when I got it. RH6 wouldn't install and I had to custom compile
a NIC driver that wasn't included in the stock kernel. That was with
maybe three days experience. :-)
