Which reminds me,
Those laptops had built in WiFi - and Linux had no
problem getting on the internet.

For a Linux desktop - I had to buy a WiFi adapter
that was Linux compatible. Non-Linux did not work.

And it looks like most USB printers are also Linux
compatible. But don't hold me to it.

Yup.
One of my backup computers is running Linux, and I
have a laptop also running Linux.

Backing up a Linux computer (like with ghost or AOMEI)
can be difficult - and depending on which version of
Linux one is running one method may or may not work
on one version or the other. . . . But it can be done.

(I was installing Linux on a fair number of old laptops.
I'd get one set up, then clone it to an image. Then
install it on the next laptop . . . I had it down pat
till I went and upgraded the version of Linux I was
installing.)

You have seen Python. Python and Linux do well together.
I was playing with the same program with Tkinter on both
Linux and windoze environments.
