Old Computers

I needn't say exactly just how old these things might be. It doesn't matter in the least particularly to me. I save them in their varying states of misuse and I work my craft. After the pentium 4 it frankly all makes me the last who laughed. An ssd, some extra ram, I turn them into nobles all. I run them till they burn apart for that is how I hope to fall. No nursing homes for me I think just upgrade my chip, burnish bright my power light and yes replace my hip. A multicore and 2 Gig more I'll lift my sword quite proud and true. You can lay there if you like, that medicine was made for you. Old computers, Linux, and a couple extra drives, I've shorted this laptop once or twice it's still counting lives. Notice though I never said a word about a brand? In Frankenstein they used whatever stuff they had at hand. I will ask you to be choosy though when switching out my parts, let's keep it open source I think, especially the hearts. An HP might run kinda warm, a Dell might last forever, I won't ever use a Mac, well perhaps I won't say never. I like them all enough to try to keep them all alive, the less you heap in to them, the better they tend to thrive. In a way they are like people, at least in that respect, dust them off and help them with the parts they might reject.
