merci3Just wanted to show off the lowest end hardware I ever ran Linux on
pastermil2GB of RAM? Low?
Were you born after the year 2000?
Haha, I’ve been used to 4gb ram minimum for most of my life 😆
I remember when 128MB RAM sticks were $400
whalerossI remember expanding my Amiga with 512KB to 1MB Fast RAM and later going crazy with another two megabyte Slow RAM.
I remember my dad’s friend upgrading our PC clone to 640K. He used a soldering iron.
I remember when computers had no memory and the storage was on punch cards made from mammoth leather that we had to tan ourselves after spending our weekends hunting the mammoth with spears. Also we carved our code by hand on stone tablets. Young people these days have it easy.
You had one job.
Mentioning punch cards had me, but you blew it!
Punch cards. The “true” PC era.
“Stone” tablets? Luxury. Ours were dried mammoth dung.
I slept in my first computer - and worked as verbal RAM (first VRAM!) 28 hours a day !
