OC by @merci3@lemmy.world

Single core, 32 bit CPU, can't even do video playback on VLC. But it kinda works for some offline work, like text editing, and even emulation through zsnes! It's crazy how Linux keeps old hardware like this running.

Thankfully though, this laptop CPU is upgradable, and so is the ram, so I'm planning on revitalizing and bringing this old Itautec to the 21st century ๐Ÿ˜„

Are those odd choices? My knowledge of emulators is more outdated than OP's hardware.

nah, not odd at all! it was one of the first things i noticed before i got down to the hardware specs, so it got my attention.
