I like the ability to run Lubuntu on old, 32-bit x86, computers. Plenty of
people have passed on old kit to me (albeit with Pentium or better
processors) and they have been refurbished with Lubuntu and passed on for
free. My youngest user, Olivia, is nearly two - she sees her mum using a
laptop so she plays with the Lubuntu stuff (in particular TuxPaint) and my
oldest user is 70ish.

BW,


Ian
