Showing some things you can do with Puppy Linux (430 Firefox remaster) and how it can look, on an old PC/laptop. This is only with the Xvesa X server and JWM window manager.
As shown in the beginning the computer has 512 MB RAM and 2.4 Ghz processor, but much lower specs will also work.
As you can see at the end of the video (from 6:10), Puppy has not that many packages in its package manager, but there are a lot available on the forums.
Btw: video playing looks laggy, but that's only if you watch in 360p, YouTube dropping frames.
(Video made using Drec 2.0)

  • That's a badass theme...where did you get it?

    Think Puppy will run on my old 733 MHz / 256 MB RAM clunker?

  • @JesusManson323 Yes should run, but for more memory you could make a swap partition.

    JWM theme = Slate (modified) and GTK theme = Brushed, from

    puppy. b0x. me/ jwm-themes and jp. bizet. free. fr/ themes/ gtk2 .html
