Been fighting with a 10 year old laptop all day. I got gifted an old Dell Lattitude C640. Decent enough machine for it’s time - seriously needs more ram & a bigger disk but it’s amazing how well FreeBSD & OpenLook can run on it once windows is wiped away. Even finally got a wireless PCCard working. Opera’s not too bad though with only 256mb right now LGF just sends it thrashing :D Hopefully I can get a gig (max supported) or two (works unofficially). Supposedly I can drop in a faster Mobile P4 into it as well (1.8ghz now) though I’ll do the ram & disk thing first.

And how was your day?

how did our softwares get so fat that they will thrash on “only” 256meg??
