| 15:46.41 | joshinct | FunkyStickman: Well, the G3 iBook is just too low-end to run any X applications from recent years. I put a clean CLI install on it and added the bsdgames package along with a few other console games. Will see how the kids like it. Theyâll either love it for the vintage feel of games like nInvaders or (more likely) turn their noses up at it, but at least itâs working and in the world. |
| 15:47.19 | joshinct | I could buy the memory expansion for the iBook and get better results, probably. But that sells for $20 and you can get the whole machine on eBay for $90, so itâs not exactly a good investment. |
| 16:12.05 | FunkyStickman | Ah, bummer. |
| 16:12.41 | FunkyStickman | Yeah. When you can get a Pi 3 for $40, makes it hard to justify other than just for nostalgia. |
| 16:12.53 | FunkyStickman | Though... nostalgia is very strong. :) |
| 16:14.01 | FunkyStickman | I discovered my G4 tower was upgraded to 1.0Ghz at some point. Which made me both happy and sad: it's faster than I thought it was. But it's still really slow. Nothing changed. |
