During the great lockdown I killed time by building a bunch of computers that then went to kids without access to one. They were a mixture of operating systems between windows and various linux flavors and oriented towards different age groups. I never really kept track of the number but it was something that kept me occupied and a whole bunch cheaper than golf or sailing or sports cars.

Re: Linux!!!
Even the command names made sense.
​
make did what the name implied.
​
grep was a general regular expression program
​
ed was an editor
​
and awk .... um
​
and creat ... um
