Coincidentally just set up OpenBSD on an old iMac G4 to try as desktop. Pretty cool so far, though web browsing is basically, for me, limited to non-JS sites.

Coincidentally just set up OpenBSD on an old iMac G4 to try as desktop. Pretty cool so far, though web browsing is basically, for me, limited to non-JS sites. No Firefox available and it would probably crash nonstop (Otter does). NetSurf is great though! Outside of that, the OS is easily-configurable and the "sane/secure defaults" approach is great. It also thus far feels very cohesive. Time will tell, but I'm impressed thus far. :)
- MisterTea 6y agoI did the same a while back but for some reason the display is stuck coming out of the VGA port. Having never owned one and seeing no video I thought my machine was not supported by OpenBSD. I knew there was a VGA port and plugged the monitor in and bingo, X windows. It ran most programs just fine. I used it for a day mainly running drawterm to a plan 9 machine.
