Parent article: IBM Japan to install Linux desktop on recycled PCs

It seems that they might be best off simply automating a Knoppix hard disk installation script. There is a Japanese version of Knoppix, so the hard parts have already been done.

8000 yen per system !?!

That seems a bit steep for such a simple operation. Oh well, they have to make their money somehow I suppose.

Installing Linux on old PC might be a big hassle. Especially, there are so many distribution out there and which is the better one?

Why not use WinDOM, a truly plug & play chip that take less than 5 minutes to setup and your old PC can actually run operating system like Window XP, 2000 or .NET server.

I think for school, business or government it is perfect solution to maximize surplus old PC and minimize environmental pollution.
