If you’re one of those folks who doesn’t want to fork over giant stacks of money for the latest whiz-bang gizmo with all the most fashionable bells, whistles, and doo-dads, .. If, in other words, your computing needs are fairly simple, so there’s no sense wasting a lot of computer power when a simple machine will do the trick just fine, then NTR’s Computer Thrift Store has what you like!

For just $99, our Linux PC will get you surfing the Net and doing your email without distracting you with irrelevant features. It has a moderate amount of memory (512 MB of RAM), a moderate amount of disk space (40 GB), and it runs an open source document suite you can use to write letters, etc, without a lot of fuss. It runs on Linux, not Windows, but since your computing needs are simple, this is exactly what you want. This machine comes with a 90-day drop-off warranty. (Even the warranty is simple: No packing and shipping.)

So, if you’re one of those folks with modest computing needs, we hope you’ll come home to NTR’s Computer Thrift Store!

And actually, they are much more than simple. Linux, by default is not
as resource hungry as the other operating systems.

Look at all you get: http://lubuntu.net/

Couple that with the Linux Community, specifically
http://ubuntupennsylvania.org/ The Ubuntu PA Local Community Team and
all of it’s resources. IRC, Forums, Mailing list, etc. and the world
is yours!

Modest. Never.
Humble, some of us.
Powerful Operating System.
