>buying trash

Hoard.

Instaboner

tried to play this again recently and quit within 5 minutes of entering the church.
I have no clue how I used to do multiple runs of this game.

aint nobody got time for slow motion movement these days

Now using a Thinkpad R51 (2004)
Fix a Thinkpad 600 but "2wsx" dosent work

I have a toshiba from 1996 (1st gen Pentium, 16mb RAM) and I do nothing with it, just turn it on from time to time to get drunk with nostalgia.

I also have a T60 that I used as a home server until recently (removed the drive because of another need). Now it just sits there with no drive.

video related on the toshiba.

I have an R60 with Windows 7 that I use for gaming. It has a 32-bit Core2 CPU that I can't be bothered to upgrade to something 64-bit, which would provide few advantages since the board only supports 4GB of RAM anyways. I have a 64GB SSD in it. Works well for stuff like Star Wars Battlefront 2.

>Thinner bezels than most modern laptops
Where did we go so wrong?

Throw them at homeless people.

>>comfy

I just came

I still use it, with modern software.

Oh fuck that's a cool idea. Trophy case of laptops.

Run a small IT company. We do general IT service and or testing for small businesses.
Over 28 computers in my home office.

10+ are 5+ years old

Save nevessary data, wipe drives,install Linux distros
-Mint
-Kali
-Raspbian on Pis
Etc.

They all run great.
Good as new.

(In fact of the 28 boxes I run, only 4 run windows... And one is a Win98SE persistent USB that I made for fun/nostalgia)

...

software testing to represent 'minimum system requirements' for my projects

What's a good, lightweight distro for old toaster laptop/pc?
Like, 512mb ram-toaster.

nice collection

>T60
perfectly usable to this day with libreboot and a better screen, I set one up as my parents' email machine

I've had good luck with antiX.
It's working on a pIII and pIV with 384 and 512mb of RAM

>Two Pentium-era Thinkpads
>Two Toshiba Librettos

jelly

It's part of my weightlifting system (a backpack full of heavy stuff)

Old pic, I have even more junk now.

Lubuntu is neat

3d space pinball

this is pretty sad

Either puppy linux or Damn Small Linux.

Throw Debian and FreeBSD on them and then throw them in the corner to collect dust. I want to take my T43 to Starbucks but the fan sounds like a microwave and I can't be bothered to replace it.

>Mature
WTF, I miss rebelling against Christian America in the 90's now.

Play retro games.

>index finger instead of middle finger

T60 - wav ripper
X61 - audio source for $5000 stereo system

need advice - I have old samsung n150 plus netbook and it's slow as fuck - can't even watch youtube videos. I blame windows 7 starter. What linux distro would you recommend?

Kek, these brainlet wojak memes have peaked.

Puppy

I just bought a nice upgraded t43 for too much but it was my first notebook I had when I was teenager so I had to cop another one although I already have a number of others

Dell Latitude CP, early 1990's
Got it as a gift when I was 6-8.
Loved it to death.
hardrive died. i'm buying a new one and seeing what I can do about it being semi-dead.
I wanna get her up and running again so bad.
She makes me fill like a kid again.

I think it ran XP... i'll see about getting that back.

Unless it has historical significance I pull the hard drives and throw the rest in the recycle bin.

I hope you dust that shelf every day.

...

Put puppy linux on mine. Can browse the web and youtube just fine one it.

Eventually I will dual boot with windows98 so I can play old games. It also has a floppy drive and a dvd drive, which is kinda neat.

This is sad.
This is not
Fucking normalfag.
