    obviously you cannot read this, because your computer is dead - but maybe you are reading from a friends computer.

    watso's computer stuffed up a long time before he bought a new one. for what it is worth download a "puppy linux" system - and burn it to a cd. a 150mb system will be good enough

    http://puppylinux.org/wikka/Puppy54

    and go to the down load links.

    for what it is worth, but the system works completely in ram - and for what it is worth, but watso ran the system for a long time in conjunction with a usb drive... but eventually, it was time to get a new system

    just hunt around for a cheap computer - in the end, watso paid $299 for a new computer with 4gb of ram, and 500gb hard drive - but no operating system - but then installed a few linux systems (eg linux mint), in all fairness, most people do not need anything more than a linux system.

    watso noticed that dell have a system for $399 - which includes windows - which is cheap, considering that back in 1998, watso paid $2000 for a computer which only had a 4gb hard drive - and maybe 64mb of ram (whatever the ram was, watso recalls upgrading to 128mb of ram - and that cost about $128) - and then consider the cost in relation to wages
