That old PC had a motherboard+CPU+RAM upgrade this year, and now works suspiciously well. PowerTerm InterConnect for Windows provides secure, seamless access to accounting, inventory management & other apps residing on multiple hosts e.g., IBM,Digital,UNIX,SCO. Despite having never worked in IT or had formal education in IT past the age of 13, I would probably, reluctantly own up to being a Linux enthusiast, if pushed. Now, a little over two years later, I run 6 Gentoo machines, and I fiddle with all kind of stuff like different inits, C libraries etc, and I have enough ideas for experiments to keep me busy for the next 5 years at least. In 2017, wanting to learn a bit more, I wanted to "try out" Gentoo for a bit, which ofc became a full-scale habit almost immediately. I started using computers in the 1980s so working in a terminal was very straightforward, but I only used Linux on a casual basis to do the stuff as a regular domestic PC user would, i.e. The fact that it wasn't like Windows didn't trouble me at all. I found Unity hard work so just changed the default login to GNOME, which I liked and still use today. That was, and remains, horseshit, so I installed it myself, one OS on each drive. I had 2 HDDs, and he was adamant that the only way it should be done was to dual boot with both OSs on one drive, and the other one as media storage only. So, a friend of mine offered to set me up on Ubuntu, which I'd been very slightly interested in. It was LGA775 and already maxed out with 4GB of RAM, and I just couldn't afford to upgrade. Back in early 2012, health problems meant that I suddenly had major cash problems, as well as a PC that was struggling.
