I don't need current hardware... this computer is circa. 93 (about) . This is why linux rules.... to run an up-to date distro you don't need current hardware. It is not like M$ where xp hardware won't run on vista os; and xp won't run on earlier hardware; etc. I think M$ in in cahoots with hardware manufacturers!

I have liked the Ubuntu for laptops/desktops. Id suggest trying 9.10
as it has a number of new features and very current hardware.

A mouse trap, placed on top of your alarm clock, will prevent you from
rolling over and going back to sleep after you hit the snooze button.
