I have a friend who's a gamer. Whenever he upgrades his gaming machine we
put the old one in the studio and run Ubuntu Studio on it.

Personally, I get a mid-range BCS motherboard and last year's flavor of
the month processor, and an 80 Plus PSU and I'm off. Memory costs
nothing. Linux costs nothing.

My ham radio computer is one of those $200 WalMart boxes from about 5
years ago.


Ubuntu is for windows morons who can't run a true unix/linux ...
slackware is where it's at! Morons running windows flavored linux are
just disgusting ...
