Can my computer handle linux?

voidmain:
Oh, it ran well on that old garbage hardware too. I just had to add a parameter to the lilo.conf file, that wasn't too painful.

I've got a P166 64mbram, 6gig gb with win95/linux. IMO win95 is a bit faster, but that's only if you a) hardly use it or b) clean it up every week. But, of course, Linux is far more stable, And is moron-proof, so any idiot who is used to winblows goes crazy because they don't know what to do. My sister goes into a fucking panic when she presses the wrong button which asks her for a root password. I love that.

Hopefully all my hardware of my new comp is supported by Mandrake, if so, i'm going to put it on my new comp, and i'm really gonna beat her up if she presses the reset button when she shouldn't have to.

disable the reboot and shutdown buttons. i did that to my laptop during school so some asshole couldn't reset my laptop while one was in openoffice. its amazing when the reset button doesn't work on a system there trying to be an asshole with. he started shaking my laptop. then i told him if the feeling of solid food going down your esouphagus and breething with your own lungs is of any real value he would cease to both me./*note, i am not very strong but have a "history"/*suspensions from school, the shrink asking odd questions next time i see him etc etc*/ of not being nice when people piss me off*/

if linux will work on the SSEM mandrake mark 1 (made in 1948) im pretty damn sure linux will work on your computer.

SSEMs: built 1948

64k memory
no harddrive, no floppy drive, no cds, only tape and rom chips.

the only change that was made to the SSEMs was to convert it to US voltages.
