Buy ready or do it your self?


Experience shows that it takes some time with your "toolbox" when you are to make old computers ready to run. Time is money and the time you spend creating a solution on your own might not add up to the costs of buying old refurbished computers or letting someone do the setup for you.

For those who wish to learn about the installation and the maintenance there are a lot of documentation available in the wiki, found here.
