That statement may be true, but it's not easy for me to digest, since I
can't get much of anything to run on my old dell 8100. Yeah, I know it's a
p3, but the only thing I can get to run on it anymore is crunchbang. Nothing
else will install, and crunchbang barely works. It depends on how it
installs. sometimes it works, and sometimes it doesn't.

I could run older versions on it, but then there's not support, and there's
not security updates.
