Hi again,

Now you're talking, Steve. I have an old Toshiba Satellite Pentium 120
megahertz. I wonder if that could be used? Maybe with Puppy, Damn Small
Linux, Fluxbox or Feather Linux. Though I don't know if it has a TFT screen.
I think it might have one of the old "passive screens" that they used to
have before TFT. It would be a challenge to see if that computer could be
used for a project like this. It also has I think a 1.5 gig hard drive, and
I can't remember how much RAM - I think maybe 32 meg.

What about that idea for a workshop? Any takers, or anybody who could teach
it? I'd start looking for an old lappie - maybe with a bit better specs than
that one I mentioned - if I thought I could (with help) do this project.

Cheers,
Kath
