While the machine is old relatively it is quite happy running discord, vscode and a web browser and I use it in my office as my main dev machine. I don't want to have to go through the hassle of running two operating systems or compiling a custom kernel.
Well we will see what happens I suppose.
- CydeWeys 7y agoIt sounds like you're entering the realm of sufficiently niche to the point that you might need two computers (or at least dual boot). I've been there for decades, though not for the exact same reason.
- davesmith1983 7y agoYeah you are probably right. I think the last version of Windows that runs well and has a proper floppy driver is XP-64 bit (basically Windows Server 2003 64bit). OpenBSD will probably work well if I swap out the Geforce 8800 GPU with an AMD GPU of some sort, I am sure I could get a relatively decent one second hand.
