Do you have time to discuss about our Lord and Saviour Gentoo and how one would go about installing it?

But seriously, why not install some flavor of Linux on those clunkers?
>>
>>61531521
Because W98 nostalgiabox, it's an old piece of shit with 1gb of storage and 128mb of memory.

I already tripleboot W7, Arch and macOS on my memepad T420.
>>
>>61531463
Gentoo is free
>>
>>61531463
install mint xfce

like, right now
>>
POSReady 2009
>>
>>61531463
install gentoo faggot.
>>
>>61531588
There's a registry hack too that'll let you get POSReady updates on retail XP too
>>
for family members who ONLY use a web browser, i install linux mint and install flash and configure it to make netflix work properly.
>flash
yeah whatever, there are still lots of shitty sites that only allow flash to view their videos.
>>
>>61531538
Okay so how do you keep it running at a good pace? Like is it slow, i just wanna run youtube skype and some good ol' games on it. maybe some steam?
>>
loonix

>>61531659
>skype
>steam

>>
>>61531659
isometric games man, isometric games, like dungeon siege.
>>
>>61531843

interplay fallout

>>61531463
Any resources for what? Just run it. XP is still fine. You might find some modern programs no longer work (did Chrome kill XP support?) but you can find alternatives.
>>
>>61531463
Put linux on the damned thing unless you enjoy lack of support, no updates, no software, and exploit overload.
>>
>>61531964
yeah chrome killed it but firefox still is good.
>>
>>61531983
>XP
>no software
Every piece of software his hardware can handle was written for XP.
>>
>>61531983
Okay but I don't want to have to write some code for every single update on every single program
>>
>>61532057
tha fuck you even talking about? this isn't the nineties
>>
>>61532078
This is windows xp. its always the 90's to me
>>

>>

Install Firefox, upgrade to a modern wireless adapter (older XP era ones tend to die out over time), max your machine if you can afford it, then sit back and play old games.

This thing is for 50% shitposting, 50% Halo: Combat Evolved
>>
Install Xubuntu. If you really want, Windows 7 should work just fine on it as well. Enable the basic or classic theme if the normal interface is too much for it to handle.
>>
>>61531509
this

>>61531499
Are you that guy who recently got released from prison and windows 98 was the latest thing when he got sent down?
