@ActionRetro I have Ubuntu 20.04 LTS on a 2008 Mac Pro and it's a fantastic server and workstation. RAID10 across 4x 2TB drives, 24GB of memory, 1x 4core Xeon E5462 @ 2.8Ghz. And it was free!

@ActionRetro I once had a laptop come in to the Genius Bar filled with pee (but wasnโ€™t one of these toilet seat iBooks so there was no excuse)

We do these things not because they are hard but because they annoy the hell out of us once we have the idea until we make it work.

Having said that its probably more powerful than the laptop my current company gave me.

@ActionRetro These little Psion thingies were right exactly in my childhood phase of "I sure wish I could have one of those but they're expensive and would not serve me any practical purpose".
