=== HP ProDesk 400 G1 Small Form Factor Business PC ===

== Introduction ==
This is a second-hand, computer, formerly Australian Government owned. It was purchased from an Australian reseller who advertised it on their internet web-site. It had a pre-installed MS Windows OS. The BIOS setup manual gives the full name of this computer as "HP ProDesk 400 G1 Small Form Factor Business PC". When purchased, it had a fully installed and working MS Windows OS. This computer name is rather long, so we shall refer it as HP400 in this discussion. Many people use MS OS (Operating System). I prefer and use Linux OS. It is a question of preferences and it is futile to argue about preferences. In the following text, the references to computer operations will be for Linux OS unless specifically MS Windows OS is mentioned.

== CPU ==
The comprehensive and simple way to report it is with the CLI (Command Line Interface). The command to examine and report the CPU details is lscpu. Generally, "ls" is the command for listing the file system. The following list shows inter alia that my user-name on my HP400 computer is "ak". The command lscpu was applied in a console window that was opened on the desktop.

Old Second Hand PCs

=== Old Second Hand Pc's ===

==== My needs ====

First, what is and why does this section exist. Well, I am old and many PC users are old. That is a good enough reason for this section to come to life. I have recently purchased an old second-hand computer through an Australian retailer on the internet. It was sold as an "ex-gov" desktop Personal Computer, with MS Windows installed and no other operating systems on it. Well, I like MS and I like MS Windows, but I also like other Operating Systems. In particular, I have used Linux in its various versions over the last few years and it has given me great service. So I wish to have a multi-boot desktop computer for my home use.

==== My "new desktop computer" ====

The internet retailer advertised and "ex-gov" HP400 PC with MS Windows pre-installed". More about the computer: it is "HP ProDesk 400 G1 Small Form Factor Business PC", as BIOS Setup manual reports. Having booted a live Linux disk, and started a "gparted" program I had look at the existing partitions of the disk. I found that the HDD disk is about 500 GiB size and that most of it is taken by a Windows partition, so using gparted I shrunk it down to make room for two Linux OS's and the swap partition.
