It still amazes me that a country as tiny as the UK was this ambitious and powerful to expand like that. Like if any of those other countries banded together and were like Yeah, No, it's not on mate. Their numbers would eclipse the UK. maybe somebody with mechanics of colonization can explain how the UK was "succesful" at this venture

For the ones I had, the corrosion of the metal and stained labels was the give away (looked like they had been out on an autoshop repair bench), but each part had its own label dates. HDD was way older date than the controller board.

As a side note: if you install OpenSUSE it defaults to install a lot of packages, but during summary before install you can click Software and Uncheck all, and only check patterns or single packages you want. Just another lightweight option.

Depends on your ISP, some only allow their product, some don't care. If they only allow their equipment you can often pay less rent per month by going to bridge mode, or they supply a bridge, and ypu use your own wifi router. I think ours was $5 month for modem, $10 if you used their wifi router

Amazon reseller for xbox drives was getting 10 year old dirty crusty drives and swapping the HD controller to a more recent one. So SMART report looked like a young drive. Xbox casing had a sticker or warranty void. So me being me wondered and opened it to find a dirty ass old drive inside. i called Amazon and initially they said it is outside of return window and warranty...But i explained it doesn't matter when I detected the fraud it is still fraud. So they gave me my money back

Each one has good parts, but I think openSUSE did a lot to make things easier for new users to linux

  • Install, you see software summary, you can click and alter what patterns or packages you want included.
  • auto snapshots when you enter package manager or admin tools, easy rollback with snapper or boot list
  • a GTK front for all of YAST2-GUI components. All system, network, firewall, service, packages, boot and kernel config are available as GUI dialogs (as well as many others)

OpenSUSE has a guided setup if you dont want a surprise or don't know what manual setups requires. then prior to starting givea you a summary of what will be done.
