Pinc Systems, 986-PINC, tell em Vince sent ya so he think I'm bringing in
clients ;)
We are linux friendly, I'll probably end up installing it if you want it

We usually have the best prices(consider our lower overhead), and we've
been in business since the 80s.
You can't actually get Pentiums anymore, the slowest thing you can get is
a 300mhz celeron or Pii.
