The RAMpocalyspse is certainly making the job of Linux evangelist easier these days. A good friend has a business and needed a computer for the office but was shocked by the retail prices now.
He knows that I rehabilitate old PCs and asked if I had any spares. So I set him up with a MintBook Air from 2012. He's stoked. 💚 It's his first experience with Linux & I can't wait to get his feedback. 💻️

Actually it's a Linux two-fer this week. My son's classmate remarked to him that he was thinking about trying Linux. My son told him to ask me about it with the warning that I wouldn't stop talking about it. Fedifriends: You'd be proud of my restraint and cool telling this kid about what all is possible. Sure enough he's got out his old laptop that had fallen out of use &installed Linux Mint on it. Reported back that he was tinkering with the terminal & trying to learn Python. He's on his way!
