   Hello Maurice!   
      
    MK> No distribution but instead a bastardized "Linux From Scratch"   
    MK> (http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/).  I've been doing this for about 25   
    MK> years now.  The last official distribution I ran was ttylinux, which was   
    MK> the very  first x86_64 ttylinux if the truth be told.   
      
    MK> How about you?   
      
   No specific linux installation yet. I've only been using     
   different live-CD versions from time to time to test     
   compatibility and performance on the aging machines that I     
   have.  If/when it comes down to it, I will probably use Mint on     
   my Thinkpad T60.   
      
   I did try Manjaro 64bit on an old Dell desktop a few years ago,     
   and it performed quite quite will with the NVIDIA video and     
   supported the 64bit command-set support on basically just 4GB     
   ram max - but a 32bit OS might be more logical for that one.
