i was tearing down my netbook today and had thought to turn it into a small server

it's a dell latitude 2100
n270
2gb ram ddr2 (1 stick is soldered)

my usecase is for tor i2p and vpn, the issue and concern is encryption, like this is way powerful than a raspberry pi 1 2 somewhat 3 except 3+ a/b 4 5 etc
is it feasible i dont really have any other usecase for this aside of dos os/2 warp etc etc

I played world of warcraft on absolute lowest settings on one of these back in 2008. It weighed like 2lbs, could hold it in one hand. I wish tablets hadn't killed the netbook trend.

They made sub-GHz celeries up until September 2007:
https://www.cpu-world.com/CPUs/Celeron_M/Intel-Ultra%20low%20voltage%20Celeron%20M%20523%20LE80537VE9331M.html

Granted it's an ultra low voltage model but still
>>
>>106497421
not a question of more but its increasingly diff. to use it when cpu is 32bit (eeepc 900) and few linux distros offer 32bit OS and or 32bit software to install. You could still XP or Win7 but browser support is limited
>>
Lol I played a lot of Diablo II on my Eee pc 701
>>
>>106497430
I played HL1 and Fallout on mine, but it could run minecraft on the lowest settings and get enough frames to be playable.
>>
>>106497421
I have one that I use as my main laptop. It has a 1.6Ghz Atom though.
>>
>>106497506
They still make netbooks, most of them are running atom or low end celeron cpus now.
The good thing about them is the long ass battery life compared to the average laptop.
I'm using one to run my home assistant and a bunch of docker containers because of the low power draw.
>>
>>106498635
You can run Supermium or Newmoon on XP and have support for basically any modern webpage and regular security updates. The main issue is how much trouble that processor is going to have with all the javascript on modern sites.
>>
>>106497506
this. it's a way better form factor. fuck the ipad.
>>
>>106498635
The 700 has the issue of no PAE support which most 32 bit kernels use. AntiX has a no-PAE kernel and plenty of lightweight software so that's what i use
>>
>>106498858
will give it a look. also saw this one mentioned in searches. Loc-OS seems its focus is on old hardware as well
>>
>>106497421
It's obsolete trash.
>>
>>106497430
Vice city, underground 2, starcraft, half-life, even half-life 2.
>>
>>106499170
uh you're obsolete sweaty
>>
>>106497421
At least it does not come with a screen with dogshit contrast. 150:1 contrast screens were a plague on subsequent netbooks. Also has a full sized sd card support.
Too bad there are no native drivers for windows 98 for retro experiments.
Mine is laying on a shelve for 15 years.

>small but serviceable keyboard and trackpad

I had one and that's a bald-faced lie. The keyboards and trackpads on first-generation EEEs were nearly unusable.
>>
Unfortunately Firefox will drop 32-bit soon.
>>
>>106498706

Got any recs? I was considering getting a thinkpad x13, but wanted something smaller. I saw a chuwi x minibook, but heard they're just tablets with a keyboard.
>>
>>106497421
i've got a dell inspiron b120. intend to replace the battery and put a custom made high voltage kill switch in the expansion port and custom config a knoppix live disc to browse the tor network. i have fun things planned for that hunk of plastic and antiquated specs.
>>
>>106497421
900 series had awful plastics in the chassis, the screen hinges are guaranteed to fly off
>>
>>106500094
when do they plan on doing that? is the tor browser going to follow suit?
>>
>>106500143
yes. i just used the laptop recently. it works fine. and yes, the battery is shot. do i need to be wary of the battery killing it?
>>
>>106500121
good thing i don't have the 900 series then
