I just installed ubuntu on my old dual core laptop that had windows 8 on it. This was my first linux experience... I think it's great. And not just because windows 8 is so crap. It breathed new life into that old laptop which I will now retrofit with a ram boost and an ssd upgrade. Which I wouldn't have bothered with before.

thanks so much for this video. I'm glad you put "400% speed" on that loading part, otherwise I would think that my computer hung lol btw, though partition 3 worked for me also, any reason why it's 3 and not something like 0 or 1? just curious

Yep, with that CPU and RAM XP 32 bit is the latest Windows OS available. You don't need Google Docs btw. There are other 3rd party alternatives. It's basically the same CPU speed as my 2002 Dell Dimension with Pentium 4. Only good for up to PSX game emulation.

Ubuntu was created because Debian was annoying to install for regular users, now Debian is as simple as Ubuntu to install so idk why people use Ubuntu anymore to be honest. Just use Debian if you want the apt environment. Switching to Cinnamon was also a breeze on Debian, so I will say the same about Mint.

Chapter 6 is the GNOME 3 era, not Unity. Try to speak a little slower, there's no rush and you'd be more understandable. When you display some text or comment on the screen, leave the viewer a few seconds to read it. About Ubuntu, there's also the problem of non-free and non-open software, which is arguably the most important, like software without source, proprietary software that got there who knows how, and stolen things like zfs. Which makes me laugh when someone says how great Canonical / Ubuntu is for open-source. No, it's not.

Tried to install FienixOS today (20/10/2024) on my 800MHz iMac G4. A lot of struggles either, installation went pretty much OK but resulted in a system that boots up in a white screen, can't do much about it and i don't wanna install it again. (took 1+ hours to install all the packages.) I think it might be a GPU issue? Weird, because OSX worked OK on it. I installed Adélie successfully on my 700MHz eMac with KDE Plasma, thanks to Action Retro's vid. Works like a charm, lacks some RAM tho. Nice video, good luck for perfecting this (now) Linux iMac.

I managed to install win10 64bit in using a clean ssd formatted in mbr. The installation i did through another computer and then plug back to the mac. I was trying to install win11 on a macbook unibody but somehow it loops to the boot. Did not install or add a boot manager.

My favorite operating system. I ran it exclusively in the early 2000's. Lack of good web browser support and hardware drivers had me move on. But, I recently built myself a Be Box using period accurate (and compatible) hardware, which is easier said than actually done!

I would really like to use Firefox more. It's the only big browser that still has a cool aura around it, and that's just neat. (I mean AskJeeves, Internet Explorer, and especially Netscape Navigator were all cool names) My main is Vivaldi initially because of how darn fast it ran on an old Windows 7 PC around 2019, eventually learning just how many quality of life features it has. Vivaldi has a tendency to just not work properly occasionally and Firefox is my backup for that.

Ubuntu 20.04 was where my Linux journey began though I didn't stay in the Ubuntu ecosystem long due to a bunch of annoyances I personally ran into with the distro. I eventually ended up on EndeavourOS from a number of distro hopping over the years and finally can call this place my home lol

Feels like Ubuntu went from being for humans to being for nobody. I really think things started to nosedive around when GNOME 2 was abandoned and Amazon was added to the panel. Things haven't really gotten any better and there's little reason to run Ubuntu anymore when alternatives such as Linux Mint which feel much more like the original pre-Unity Ubuntu exist.

Years late. The PCIe slot will only deliver a maximum of 35 watts. As they were only designed for low power GPUs to supply extra monitors. They will happily power a quad NIC or a 10gb NIC. remeber these are NOT designed to be general purpose PCs. They are designed to connect to a server instance over a remote desktop protocol.
