So what are you doing with your 6 year old netbook?

>>52353535
But it is Sony so it is ok

Can't decide between ftp server or web server, otherwise I have absolutely no use for it even tho xubuntu and arch + xfce run perfectly fine on it.

Oderclock it, plug it in your TV and use it as steam streaming box

How will RemixOS perform on a netbook?

>>52354877
trying it out now but it doesnt seems to boot

>>52353788
Basically the same thing, except with music server and chatbot servers.

Holy fuck I want some pics

>>52354293
Where can I cop one, senpai?

Was running arch + xfce used it for bedside media player and irc, got really bored one day and put 7 on it, then updated to 10, holy shit what a mistake that was. Went back to 7, not much better but at least it's usable. Haven't bothered to reinstall arch but that's obviously the next logical step. /coolstory>

MSI U-100 with 21" 1080p monitor.

Installed lubuntu, add Chrome and giving to relative as mostly idiot proof facebook machine.

The OS base 140/170mb ram use actually allows this 2008 netbook to be useful.

>>52353535
Im still using a 10 year old toughbook cf-18 to browse the web

>>52353535

>hp mini 1010 fits perfectly in my winter overcoat pocket

>use to receive and send emails

>>52362394
OK I feel guilty I lied, I haven't set up email or VPN yet :/

>>52353535
sell it, get a nice HP micro terminal instead, then use it as a server.
laptops are not designed to work 24/7, mainly because of heat slowly killing the battery and the hdd, also they're loud

>>52362556
Cant care less about the battery but elaborate on hdd
They use standard 2.5 inch drives ,how can 24/7 operation damage it more then it does with usual workflow

>>52362619
consumer grade 2,5 inch HDDs are NOT designed to work 24/7, believe me. I've tried using them in corporate environment in micro servers and they usually die after couple of months of usage. 2,5inch SAS drives is a different story.

>>52353535
Still using it.

I run OpenBSD and use it for when I need a smaller laptop, better battery life, or both

Popped in an SSD, it came with a 3G card, and I swapped the Wi-Fi card for an mPCIe to PCIe adapter

>>52353535
sold it to poorfags

swaped mine for a Elitebook 8470p and gave the old one to my mother.

VPN
BBC, Amazon TV
Emails
Office

before that I used it for indiegames, movies, tv, vpn, mail, uni

If I my mom doesn't need it for a while I put some Linux on it to make it faster. Windows 7 just seems too slow atm

>Asus 1215B rev 2 - best Netbook made!

Heya g, I'm looking for a cheap laptop for the sole reason of playing dwarf fortress.

So bad graphics, bad battery, good cpu and good display

Any ideas come to mind?

Never had one.

>>52363176
What do you mean by "office"

>>52362683
I'm using mine for arroud 3,5 month now , still works fine for me

>>52353535
I have a 10+ year old laptop. I only use it to operate an old scanner+printer combo which only have software for XP.

>>52354293
That looks like it would be really comfy in bed, late night

sitting in a shelf doing nothing because the fan doesn't work consistently and I don't like house fires

>>52363352
Some of the older HP envies might have what you want, it's worth having a bash at refurbished units on EBay

>>52363352
Does it have to be a laptop, cheap used desktop seams more bang for buck

My 5 and a half years old vaio works great, never had to take it to the shop, even battery runs for an hour.
