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 😄

    Hell yeah! Love seeing old hardware like this still running a modern OS.

    With Linux, if your hardware is a decade old, you’ve barely even reached middle-age.

    Meanwhile Windows 11 won’t even allow an official install on hardware that’s 4-5 years old.

    Long live Linux & FOSS ✊
