Good Will / Value Village both have "good" prices but caveat emptor. Does it have to be physical hardware? I'd recommend going virtual, if possible. Install your choice of hypervisor, then create an XP VM (or three). I think you'll find it to be a much better choice than running discrete hardware for each OS. Yes and no. Separate machines help me track "where am I and what am I doing?" Much as I have a separate log in and face book account for the organization I'm now "responsible" in. And if I crash the alternate machine, I still have the main machine (or verse vica). -- pyotr filipivich Next month's Panel: Graft - Boon or blessing? |
