Which Walsham?
I've got a pentium 2, 300khz think that is the right age which you're welcome to use or even borrow beforehand to set up.
Sounds about perfect!
Be interesting to compare how ten years has advanced linux. Imagine quite a number will be on ubuntu 9.04.
I'm thinking of grabbing a copy of Redhat 6.0 to install as I recall (but could be wrong) that there were a few copies being handed out at the first meeting as it had been out for about a week.
iirc we were on RedHat 5.1 and copies of Suse 5.0 were being shared. I remember my linux box had RH5.0 and I did an upgrade to 5.1 from a magazine covermount between the 1st and 2nd meetings. I don't think I upgraded to 6.0 until I scrounged a disc at the 3rd meeting at the UEA. P2s were the processor common at the time, my Linux box had an AMD K6-2 550Mhz with 64Mb PC66 ram iirc.
