Forgot to reply ALL.

I have a few old computers I could donate to the winner. I would just need
to come up with funds to ship the computer. The computer is a HP dc5000 (
http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/Home.jsp?lang=en&cc=us&prodTypeId=12454&prodSeriesId=403745&lang=en&cc=us)
not great but some people have much slower computers than P4 2.8 with 512 MB
ram.
Linux Mint installs nicely on these computers. :)
