I went to the local club meeting today and when I walked through the door I
was told "Good thing you showed up, I've been telling everyone that if you
show up I'd give you a computer and if you didn't I wouldn't."  He went on
to say that it only runs Linux and nothing else.  He told me that the guy
he got it off of said that it was configured to run Linux and wouldn't run
anything else.

Question 1:  I didn't know that you could configure a PC to only run Linux
and nothing else
Question 2:  Not that I would or am thinking of doing it, but what would
you do to it to make it run Windows?

I told the guy it that was great because I was wanting a Linux box but
couldn't get the one I was building around a 486 to boot.

He also said that the keyboard is hardwired to the monitor???  What do I do
if the keyboard quits on me??? :^)
