Suddenly I feel like a wimp with my TR 1950X.

  Right? I feel like it's the 90's all over again and I'm loving every bit of it.

    Except that in the 90's you didn't have hardware from 15 years prior that was still generally usable for baseline tasks. Nobody was running Linux on their old ZX Spectrums or Commodore PET's! In fact, running an up-to-date Linux with mainstream features (GUI) was only for relatively high-class hardware.

      Unfortunately, I'd be hesitant to call a whole lot of hardware from 15 years ago "generally usable for baseline tasks", either. Even running just a web browser, a 2005-era machine is gonna struggle quite a bit on modern websites with a modern browser and underlying OS.
