getting started with linux

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



If you miss out on that machine, and need to bid on another one, if I were 
you, I wouldn't worry too much about it not being compatible with linux. Any 
PC that is a year old or older  is probably going to work. It's mostly very 
new hardware that isn't supported -- yet.

I guess it would be a huge bummer to get a machine and have it turn out to 
be one of the very few that is not supported. But you're probably more 
likely to get a defective machine off ebay than you are to get one that has 
an unsupported sound card.
