Somehow or other, my son and I have ended up with several old computers
which we use to make one working system out of several that don't work very
well. Since we get the machines for free, we give them away to people who
need a computer but can't afford to buy them. We spend no money on these,
just time. For the people who have gotten our rebuilt machines, any
computer is better than no computer, and they don't care that they just got
a "new" 486 SX. They are happy to have something that computes!
