No problem; if you change your mind let me know.  I already donate 
repurposed systems when clients attrition hardware out of their 
business, to non-profits and the less fortunate kids who need them for 
school.  Linux breathes new life in these systems since it doesn't have 
near the hardware requirements M$ does, nor the licensing, etc.  Good 
luck in your endeavors and if you change your mind let me know.
