All memory slots full. Looks like a lot but its an older Dell R720 and most of the memory chips are 4G so the total is only 112G.

This IC-706MIIG would not turn on. Now it won't turn off. Victory?

I may try out Scientific Linux because I like the logo. Kernel seems a bit old at 3.10.

I spent 6 hours today figuring out that the Intel Driver & Support Assistant V3.0.0.9 has created ~1.6 million files called 'default_error_stack-x-y.txt' in the C:\Windows\System32 directory causing the computer to take 7 minutes to boot up.😫

@penguin42 I noticed I never really saw the Windows logo. It just said Lenovo for 7 minutes before I got the windows login screen. I found a post saying to check for C:\Windows\System32\Resources\bla.dll. When I opened the System32 directory Explorer loaded very slow and said there were 1M+ files in the directory. Removing the files fixed it but they kept coming back. By looking at the contents of the files and doing some web searches I fould the cause.

Cyrix MII processor system with a BIOS date of 05/08/99 and its running Slackware 15.0 with kernel 5.15.19. A very old system with current usable applications. Isn't Linux awesome!

@publius It was a good one. Interesting. I sincerely hope your house doesn't implode and you don't have to find another place for your stuff.

I just used my TPM to authenticate an ssh session. That was fun! I had to compile gnupg as the support for TPMs is pretty new.

@publius Awesome. I hope they have a lot of preservatives because I will probably keep it forever.

I got to look around at a bowling alley that is being destroyed. What a shame. It was both fun and sad. Even found some old bowling ally controls stuff.
