| From: "Steve Petrie, P.Eng. via talk" <talk@gtalug.org> | At long last I have created a final build recipe for my new desktop PC | to run debian Linux. Replacing an ancient Dell PC running WIndows XP: The i3-8100 is faster, cheaper, newer and has better graphics hardware than the i5-6500. Why not use it? Or an even faster "8th gen" processor? Perhaps the motherboards are more expensive. I haven't looked. But they are likely to have a few more modern features.
