A 32kB Apple ][ system cost $2000+ in 1977, but has so little utility

failing at that age, so unless you value the user's time at zero, it
won't be worth keeping them going.

You cannot put old world Apple computers in the same category as usable
Pentium III PCs.  Loaded with Linux MInt 9 LXDE, a Pentium III 800 MHz can
play YouTube videos properly.  Futhermore, Linux Mint 9 LXDE is blazing
fast!

In fact I deployed my Linux image on a 2001 HP laptop and the customer is
extremely happy with my work!
