  • Heh, I'm impressed. Did similar some years ago with an old Acer NL350 (P120/24mb), with Win95 Lite, and I'm pretty sure it was no faster... possibly even a touch slower. Battery life didn't significantly increase either. Went up from an 850mb 2.5" disk to a 2Gb CF card ("expensive"! - Laptop was £40 second hand, the CF card £42 new) and apart from the extra capacity and quieter running it didn't seem to benefit much. The machine's disk interface was just too crap. Or maybe it was a bad CF card?

  • "Or maybe it was a bad CF card? " probably

    

  • Well, my parents used this thing untill four years ago. I was 14 at that time, and I was fucked. I had to make every scchool project at that piece of old crap. My days were horrible.

  • rofl - and now you did search youtube for "320cdt" to meet the thing again?

  • @coltarmadillo Dude seriously whats your problem i said i dont like the song......

  • @timpos546 oh FUCK YOU ASSHOLE

  • @TahreyUK Agree with the part of not having to learn another way to use the computer, but better and smaller? ur kidding right? Have u ever used linux? Not talking about ubuntu crap distro.

  • @Yarach Making anyone work with a Toshiba Satellite is a surefire way to hurt your karma. At least, unless it's been significantly upgraded from stock in the RAM and disk departments...

  • @a4ndr3c Because for a machine like that, Win95 Lite is a much better, smaller, and easier to implement choice that doesn't involve getting used to a whole different software suite and way of working. So long as you don't want to go online with it, anyway.

  • Annoying song :O
