You are not fitting any modern distro into 64 megs of RAM and getting anywhere near the experience Windows 98 offered. Even getting to a text console in that amount of RAM takes some pretty careful planning. Most distros are dropping support for i386 in entirety. I think even Debian is due to drop it with the trixie 13.0 release. Either that or trixie is supposed to be the last one.

[@jaysistar2711]

You aren't fitting the distro, you're just fitting the kernel. I still use FVWM on a few machines. No, they don't use the mainline kernel, or a distro, unless Slackware still counts as a distro.

@@sedrosken831 This machine has a pentium II though, which would be i686 and thus still supported for a quite a while.

An old PC? That's what Greek school computers look like in elementary and junior high 💀

[@inqmusician2]

Let me explain. Nobody in college, if lucky, literally used the dial-up to go to the Internet, or on the local file shares at the time. They used the university network, which was not only faster(if your PC or laptop had a network card), but also much more versatile for sonething like IRC chats, or an occasional LAN party. And the Internet wasn't as widespread as today. 64 MB of RAM was pretty standard for 1999, while 256 MB was high end. If you also account that the best processor at the time was the Pentium 3. If you used the PC with Windows 95/98, it was pretty much a death sentence on a TCP/IP network, because network-based exploits were pretty simple compared to today, Windows 95/98 didn't work with TCP/IP properly, so you could actually get locked out of the server, because the network thought that you're attacking it, while you're actually typing it's name, and with just one bad Word document, your whole computer could go banans.

If I bought one I’d probably change the internal parts for better ones

U forgot the part where you could get shocked by your keyboard or pc if u accidentally touched the back or bare foot

What the heck PC were you using?! That has never happened to me or my buddies in that time.... I think you had a dodgy PC that is all.

I'm an old-timer here, and I can tell you that old technology is absolutely sh*tty! Today is so much better. The only thing these old PCs are good for is retro gaming, maybe. Okay, someone said router, that might be a good use.

Things are better? Guess you dont play games that are so poorly optimized that years after they came out a modern Highest end PC still cannot deal with them and endgame lag for Stellaris is beyond a joke. New tech means lazier devs, I will take a 90's dev with limited tech over some lazy arrogant greedy shithead devs making crap because they know idiots will buy it and those who complain can just be told "get a better PC/parts" like 5K GPUs are in every one's budget.

Bro thinks these PCs should have rtx 4090 💀💀💀

[@bibb09]

Um why do these keyboards look exactly like the ones we have in school currently?

Because public schools are cheap on tech, but expensive on staff room luxuries and coffee.

And yet we look back at the time we used these things with a smile on our faces
