My amazing very old laptop

[asifnaz]

It is from 1999 . Still working fine . It is pentium MMX with 64 MB ram . I am using Syllable OS on it .What OS would you
install on this Laptop..?

Very nice. I had not heard of Syllable before -- thank you!

Puppy Linux has been run with as little as 40 mb RAM, I think, but it sounds like the user did a non-standard installation with an old version. You might be better off sticking with Syllable!

Whoops, where is my brain?
Minix runs on low-spec hardware: http://www.minix3.org/
KolibriOS is even smaller, and it's an effort that amazes me: http://kolibrios.org/en/ But I don't know that it runs very many applications.

I have an HP Omnibook of 1996 vintage with 32MB of RAM running Damn Small Linux. Tiny Core Linux would be a more current equivalent.

I have something for 90s computers . May be because I was teenager in 90s and could not afford them . I remember on my way to school I used to stare at those amazing windows 98 PC which I came across . I have a Laptop with latest hardware but I still like to play with those older machines .

Xubuntu.

Likely a little heavy for the OP.

I dont think that laptop can Xbuntu with GUI

I'd probably run Tiny Core Linux or Puppy Linux on it. Syllable OS and KolibriOS look interesting though.

I'd try to do to it what I've done with an old desktop I had once, which is a very stripped down debian install running openbox for a gui and relying on mostly cli and x windows tools.
