Phone Madness
I get this guy will call him Bill he calls my house every 2-3 mths at least for the past 2 yrs. The last time was the last call for me, He has a 386 and is bound and determine to upgrade I have told him numerous times sure lets upgrade it but then he says im on a pension and cant afford it. Well this last time he called and started the same thing I want to upgrade my 386.. I almost snapped I said the only dam thing that it good for is a boat anchor at best. Told him I could sell him a used 300 loaded for $225.00 Cash and this is in Canadian $$ He says again well I can still upgrade mine. After the vein in my forehead poped I asked him to goto any shop in town other than me not in nice words.. Please dont waste my time. Bad mistake he called back after doing what I said.. Think the guy would get the hint... Whats next?
I hate people that constantly waste my time. This man will get hangups from now on I cant take it anymore beam me up Scottie

Call display... Don't answer
Otherwise, give him a price on an upgrad... New case, New mobo, New CPU, New ram... etc.. then show him the price of a new PC.. Just tell him, "Well when yo udecide to upgrade, give me a call.

You just can't tell some people anything. I think I'd try to 'refer' him to someone else. Preferably someone against whom I had a grudge. Or you can just hang up on him.

okay I said not to go there, but just for fun...
From Red Hat FAQ's Question:
What are the minimum hardware and space requirements for installing Red Hat Linux on my PC?
Answer:
This depends on the version of Red Hat Linux you wish to install. Different releases contain various sets of application packages and different versions of the Linux kernel, both of which are important when judging system requirements.
Red Hat Linux 7.1:
Processor — Any x86 processor (minimum required); Intel Pentium or AMD-K6 (minimum recommended).
And of course I'll admit there's a world of difference between 'required' and 'recommended'
isn't the formula "required=headache" "recommended x 2= realistic"
but then don't ask me i have RH 7.2 on a 1.4ghz w 256mb ram.
