Check this out, I'm using Perlonmer in surf on a vintage ThinkPad with only 512 Mbs of RAM. It's slower than a dead snail rolling downhill from Fuji mountain, but nothing's impossible 🐌
Maybe I should even register for that challenge and write reports about these things in my gemlog. I'm using hardware like this daily anyway 🤪
@publius This one dual boots XP too, I can't get some things to work properly in Linux on it. Wireless is a bit flaky, but looks like I've found a workaround for it:

I also have a PCMCIA GPRS-modem in it and I can't get it to work, the serial port just gives me some garbage. It works perfectly in Windows. Now I think, maybe it's the same problem — IRQ conflict 🤔
@m0xee
I have one of those, but it's still running Windows XP, for the sake of a Zune ― which itself isn't working, a separate problem.
