Single core, 32 bit CPU, can’t even do video playback on VLC. But it kinda works for some offline work, like text editing, and even emulation through zsnes! It’s crazy how Linux keeps old hardware like this running.

Thankfully though, this laptop CPU is upgradable, and so is the ram, so I’m planning on revitalizing and bringing this old Itautec to the 21st century 😄

    Are we competing again?

    I’m proud to be setting up a rhel10 desktop, as it’ll be the first time I ran Linux as a desktop in 30 years of a Linux/Unix career.

    To rephrase: I ran XFree86 on a 4mb i386 machine 30 years ago.

    What do I win?

      I didnt have the intention to compete, was just proud of seeing this 2007 laptop running a modern OS again!
