I regularly use an EEE PC (901, I think?) when I don't want to deprive my wife of the MacBook. Runs Debian Linux with MATE just fine, only browsing is a bit slow.
The programs I use are configured to have a minimum of toolbars and such to save on screen space.
There's also a Pentium 4 PC that I've installed a time-appropriate stack on - Windows 2000, Visual Studio 6, etc - to see if I was wrong to assert Wirth's law. I wasn't, the thing flies.
- serf 6y agoEEE PCs are cool. I had a bunch, and modified them all. I wish that Asus had continued that line-up -- especially now with common touch and high res small glass displays. ultrabooks seem to have won, but I love 7-9 inch laptops as a form factor. The typing takes some getting used to, but the size is such a nice convenience factor.
