| 14. Yes Fourteen!
4 running Windoze 2000 Professional
1 running an ISDN line tester package under Windoze 98
1 running Netcool alarms monitor under Windoze 2000 Professional
8 running HP Openview on a mix of Sun Solaris and HP Unix platforms.
They are not all mine, they are shared by the bridge team here, but it is one BIG desk.
Oh and a 32 inch Stereo Nicam TV - for night shifts.
Oh and by the way; when our operation moves to plusher offices next month, we are getting two 52 inch plasma screens to replace the HP Openview stations. Wicked or what.

| pretty scary,
I cant beat hippo's quantity (and don't really want to with my relics...), but I think I must have the oldest fleet.
young to old:
1)Athl 1.8GHz Notebook - SuSe Kernal 2.4.? for travel
2)PIII 450 Abit BE6 Dualboot W2k Server/OpenBSD RAID file server
3)PIII 500 abit BE6 worksta dualboot debian2.4/W2k workstation w/striping on 4HD 7200rpm 2mb - totally opensource! (not even KDE). 12x18 digitizer, 19 TFT, hp Esized plotter (plotter circa 1988)
4)Celeron 1.8GHz worksta dual debian/w2kPro (bought for my late wife...)alot of graphics software
5)K6II-350 FIC, lab workstat often boots debian, slackware, yellowdog, Openlinux (caldera), or OpenBSD with Cisco 12.4 emulator or Integraph workstation
6) K6II-350 FIC, lab workstat, currently booting slackware(kernal 2.2.16) and WinNT.
7) Dual Pro 300MHz, openBSD and debian oracle/SAP Lab
8)P133 notebook (still good for data soaking from field instruments at remote sites).
9)P166 debian (kernal 2.2) router/firewall
10) AlphaMicro (circa between 1980 1982)Has a number of Cobol apps you wouldn't believe
11) DEC PDP 1170 FreeBSD 2.0 (circa 1973) bought from a municipal auction.
12) p166 Compaq lab (router simulator) running slackware on a 540 Mb disk
And I could probably build two or three out of spare parts.
I recently sold 7 monitors and bought three switch boxes. I came out about even, but much more sane.
I am looking for an antique store to sell my Alphamicro and PDP1170 on commission. Anyone sell antique furniture?

| The question might be better as: How many desks do you have with PCs on them? | |
| drdirt 2003-01-26, 10:38 pm |
| desks...or kvm switches.
/** Jeff_J_Black:
Most people probably wouldn't want 2 or 3 computers running in a Tucson house in July or August.
But its a "dry heat," right?
Is Mi Nidito still serving awesome carne seca and sahuaro? Hmmm, I miss comidas Chuk Son. | |

| It would be nice to see a private enterprise company (largish, say 5,000 to 10,000 users) that uses open source technology exclusively. Heck, even one that uses no Microshaft would be interesting.
A nice writeup on all the technology from the desktop to the demarc would be a great article! | |

| Yeah, drdirt the Mexican food here is still the best! | |
| drdirt 2003-01-28, 1:30 am |
| One mid-cap or Fortune 2000 company that is free of MisterSofty?
Is Sun still MS-free? Is Integraph? Novell?
**/
LinuxJournal features an article on a school that is all Linux. Schist, (that is a geologic term) there is a school out here in the rural farm country of California Central Valley that has been purely OpenSource for 3+ years. K-8th grade! Most of these kids getting their first computer experience at school with Linux and OpenSource apps.
If that keeps up, there will be increasing numbers of users who know that you can say no to exploitation.
Yes, resistance is futile. But resistance still makes a very small number of people a very large number of dollars.

Mr Jeff B:
Don't tell anyone how amazing the town by the black mountain (in Tohono O'odham - Chuk Son) is. They will all want to move there and take the good jobs.
BTW - know anyone who needs a geologist/engineer/network/database SAPient, Cisconating, Microsoviet Linuxian with really good taste in food? I would move back to ****** (you know where) for cheap. I'd even teach high school again.
Who do I see about that????

| There is a volunteer/non-profit org here called FreeGeek(www.freegeek.org) that rebuilds computers to be donated out. It's all Linux/Open Source. I talked with exec director. It's simple...it's free and don't run into any licensing hassles. Plus, they are older, so Linux runs better. It's a chance for lower income folks to get their hands on a machine and try to keep up and close that digital divide. |
