 Works great. This $12 one with lubuntu will be my back up computer.

If it does what you need it to do, great.

Eat your hearts out hh :) Spend a couple of more thousands on yours. Hehe :)

Nah, I'm not jealous of your frugality.  Indeed, if I had a need for a minimally capable PC, I have a couple of them sitting around that I could put back into service...plus I wouldn't have sold one last month for more than 10x your bargain find.

And rest of you, place "Christmas lights" inside them. Gift wrap your computers.
 Hahhahhahhahh :-))
 You Bozos will get more out of them that way.

Which still comes back to the question of if one's capability needs are being satisfied or not, such as you and your $12 Special:  it seems that being able to post texts to USENET is met, but is there anything else that its needed for which is more demanding?  If not, great:  you're all set.
