It could be smartco.org may be able to provide me with a used and refurbished laptop in exchange for some of the hours I worked at smartco.org disassembling computers. What smartco needs to know is what would be specs for a useable laptop as opposed to a laptop that's best not used to run speakup-enabled Linux. I have grml here and got it installed on a hard drive for a desktop computer last night and also have debian and slackware 10.2 as a result of a slackware subscription. Smartco does not want to provide me with something that isn't useable so I've been asked to do sme research.
