Newbie Question here: Can one install Ubuntu 9.04 on an ancient piece of crap computer pre-2000 hardware with WinME crap, and crap graphics? I've not made it to an install fest yet only because either I can't get a ride, monitor dies, no computer, or I get sick. Currently have a bad cold and an equally bad computer. lol Got a used ancient Dell desktop, built for checking email once a month and not much else - from Uncle and Aunt while I save to buy a NEW system76 Ubuntu. Comment: I surely hope that Ubuntu does NOT go the way of MS and release things before their time again, or I'll be forced to switch to not quite as crappy Mac, as I suck at updating anything. Yuck! I stand to inherit a Mac Laptop, that will stay Mac, but Ubuntu is the only OS for programming (even though my programming is worse than MS, Gedit can't be beat!) I intend to keep an Ubuntu OS on something that works. Thanks! signed one who hopes to make it to an install fest! -- TPKyteroo jaunting off to the Galactic Trig... <a href="http://www.globalwritersclub.com/gaming/2/word/scrambled/de/trial.html">http://www.globalwritersclub.com/gaming/2/word/scrambled/de/trial.html</a> Click here if you want a good laugh at my programming skills. JS code does not work, and I'm sure I've made many syntax errors. lol
