[QUOTE="NightShade, post: 3346773, member: 29706"] Over the last couple days I have been going through a bunch of computers and getting them running. Gave one to a neighbor so she can use her tv screen and actually see what she is doing. Have the other for a member who is having computer issues if they want it and another one just sitting here, not sure what I will do with that one. Another I dropped one of my old Radeon 6850's in and tossed Linux Mint on it for whatever. Going to fix a really old one to throw whatever on just for old nostalgic games that will not run on anything else and then need to go through some other parts and see what I can piece together. Most of the stuff isn't anything super great but still works. Had someone give me an xplore i104C5 not long ago and started to install linux Mint on it which worked pretty well but the bootloader didn't want to install right so not sure what is going on there. Still have the point of sale systems sitting around but don't want to throw money at them for no reason unless they will have a use somewhere. But just trying to keep myself busy, been 3 weeks since I went to the store. Out of bread and a few other things but honestly not bad off yet, lol. Though I am sure the people who bought huge bags of rice and are now getting into that are wondering how long they can stand to eat it plain. I did some with chicken bullion and a little seasoning and then fried it with some ham and vegetables the last couple days and then toss some different seasonings in with it and make a little sauce. Still have a couple full hams and a turkey in the freezer but not sure I am ready to get into that yet. I think Monday morning will end up being a shopping day. [/QUOTE]
