User Feedback :: what is the slowest computer you have running dsl?



i have DSL 1.0.1 now on a P166 Laptop with 40 Megs Ram and 700MB hdd - runs nicely fast and boots much much much quicker than windoze 2k.

running an hdinstall very successfully on a p133 with 32mb ram
Bingo.

Acer laptop Acernote, 486DX4 75MHz, 16MBRAM, 512MBHDD,
partitioned - Win95/DSL/Swap :p

wow! jah_lah that's impressing!
i'm posting this using my Packard Bell Legend 205CD.

- 66MHz 486
- 8 MB Ram
- 500 MB Hard Disk (installed to this hard drive using another machine then moving the hard drive since I can't boot w/CD) -- so I guess i cheated.

I've found that I can get better performance by lowering the color depth of the display, but then I can't use Firefox or Dillo.  I'm forced to use 16 bit color (4 is the lowest) which slows me down a bit.  But hey, it works.  Maybe an ISA video card will help me - i'm using the motherboard right now.
