The machine is currently at my place where i configure it and set it up for use. Also got an excuse to play around with the OS and stuff.

Done about an hour ago.. Read reviews and price charts for it. It is a HP Elitebook 8460p and it cost around 1500 Euros back in the day (2011/2012) *

Even now you can find it used for 200e. Brother paid 20e to Uusix for it. *

Okay. The machine has been delivered to him and he now knows how to use it. Brother usually only uses Firefox and VLC anyway. *

So far so good. I'm going to take some music to him sneakernet-style (in my PMP // which only has 2GB of space but that still allows around ten VBR V0 discs) *

There are actually 12 discs on my PMP at the moment. Scorpions and Jethro Tull both have 3 discs each. This thing also does FM Radio (which was the original reason to buy it) *

Just for the record: PMP is short for Portable Media Player. *

Possible problems ahead... Gonna visit him on sunday. *

Visited today. Fixed the system clock and did various routines like resetting the router, updating system etc. basic troubleshoot stuff. Crisis averted. *
