[GRLUG] NOT LINUX - dead PC

[Michael Mol]

Don't know the spec, but check out the computer store on the corner of
Ivantrest and 28th. They usually have second-hand/refurbished boxes
they're selling pretty cheap.

Also check out GPC computers, over on 29th st and Radcliffe. They sell
equipment and machines; some they make, and others on consignment.
