IIIs are being scrapped for NO GOOD REASON </span></b></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:normal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">I am surprised that recyclers of
used PCs are selling Pentium IIIs for scrap metal.<br>
<br>
Pentium IIIs are being scrapped for NO GOOD REASON<br>
<br>
Those Pentium IIIs can run special releases of Linux operating systems designed
to perform well on slow processors with low amounts of RAM (256 MB). However,
512 is the more practical minimum amount of installed system memory!<br>
<br>
Surely a Pentium III with a modern supported fast and responsive Operating
System has greater value than what is paid for scrap metal!<br>
<br>
I wish I could receive Pentium III computers for the same price a scrap dealer
pays for them (under $5.00 per unit).<br>
I am especially interested in receiving old laptops!<br>
<br>
A Pentium III PC runs from about 500 MHz to 1.3 GHz.<br>
Most likely the small HD will be replaced with a min of 20 GB HD and the RAM
increased to 512 MB.</span></p>

Mint 9 LXDE designed to run on low spec computers like Pentium IIIs, max 512
