CRUNCHBANG++

NIQQA

>>58407201
I did video editing on it, music and even virtualization as hard as that is to believe. Though I had the AMD Turion 64 version of the notebook

>>58407226
Haha is better than busenlabs ?

>>58407336
This one have 2 cores ?

I know we all like computers and stuff here, but there is a certain point where we need to acknowledge that trying to use these dinosaurs is a waste of time and no longer worth the effort

I wouldn't use anything below a t400 or x200, both of which can be found for around $60 on ebay, and that is with charger and battery

you're wasting your time, whether you wish to admit it or not

>>58407719
You so mean (T.T)
Dinosaurs must live.
Buhuhuhuhuhuhu

>>58406819
>512mb ram

Install XP with MPC-HC, Firefox and use Google docs instead of LibreOffice. Windows media player for music.

Linux distros demand at least 800mb - 1gb ram on average. You won't have much fun with it.

>>58407719
Is just 5$ for 2 gb of ram
And 18 for a new battery it should value that investment

Faster and better

>>58407808
With XP i cannot watch porn without risks ha-ha
No safe no safe

>>58406998
I'd rather have RPi than this desu

>>58407832
Now everything is faster and better than that haha

>>58407836
RPI you mean raspberry pi ?

>>58406819
Note that not every laptop of that era can handle large memory modules (even 1GB ones are sometimes a problem), so make sure you can return the memory if it doesn't work.

>>58407937
Really :O ¿?

>>58407937
I will work uurrya urrryaaaaa

>>58407719
>t400 or x200
Fuck off ThinkPad faggot. Literary a fedora computer.

>>58409098
The thinkpads or the hp compaq presario ?
>>58409098

That laptop is so far behind, you'd be wasting your money "upgrading it". either use it as it is if you can put up with it, and/or dump it. It's computer equivalent of a 1980s Honda Civic that your 90yr old grandmother gave you for your first car.

Save up for a new, or used one...$100 or $200 used laptop would still be lightyear's of ahead and more relevant than that paperweight.

>>58409745
Bitch ass nigga Honda from 70 to 2000 are cool
Grumpy v8 fan from madmax

>>58406819
POSReady is what you nee

>>58410173
I want to vomit haha

>>58409745
This laptop is a Fiat punto
A Chrysler poo haha

>>58410028
"cool" =/= practical
If you need to commute on the freeway, you're not going to feel confident in a car that takes over 10 seconds to hit 60mph at full throttle.

If op only needs to drive across town at 30mph, (check his emails), this old turd might work adequately while he saves his money for a newer one.

>>58410474
Go in /auto/
Haha
When you can't pilot japanese you stay home haha

>>58406819

>>58406819
just install whatever distro supports it best and install X with a WM manually, DEs are overrated

Intall XP on it or you are retarded, thats all

>>58409745
even $50 will get you something nice these days since moore's law died

shit I just bought a kitted XPS M170 gaymer shitbook that blows that thing out of the water for $2 + whatever paltry amount to get a new hard disk for it

still plenty of problems PM gear can solve though, they're just shitty at content consumption

>>58411704
Xp is retarded

>>58406886
Lxde, lxqt, or xfce if it can handle it.
Anything else will be too much.

>>58412547
