The development of these year's PC can really be said to be a new month, which is of course a good thing. But we must also pay attention to another problem, that is, the waste of resources is also extremely serious. The service life of a PC is only 3 to 5 years. Is these "old" machines really haven't used it? Are we really so rich? I think about this, many people have the same view. I like to play with the dirty corner, everyone thinks that the PC should be thrown away (in fact, these machines can completely donate to the school in the mountains). There are several 586 PCs in my home, and it is good to run well. I think of a story of UNIX development, that is, if there is no Ken Thempson's mind and good at the Little-Used PDP-7 Sitting In A Corner, it is likely that UNIX will not be born. How to make full use of these "old" PCs? Let me give a solution. We know, if a machine hardware is not only a bunch of scrap iron, the core is the operating system. Why do everyone think that these machines are very old? Because many of our country think "operating system = Windows". Running Windows on this machine is of course boring or simply impossible. However, we have Linux. Everyone knows that Linux can run on the oldest 386 model, which can run Linux at all. Unfortunately, many people think "Linux = (Red Hat) Red Hat". In fact, you can find hundreds of Linux releases (Distribution, short-handed disrto) on http://www.distrowatch.com/. If you don't like these disrs, you can even make your own distribut, you can find how to make disguat on http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/.
Requirements: *** A "old" machine configuration is: motherboard, CPU, 8M RAM, two network cards, keyboards, and a display. Once you are configured, you can do not display it. *** A "new" machine that has been installed in Linux, this paper is Slackware 9.0.
