I wonder why it was so slow? It runs Windows 8 at a perfectly normal speed.

I'm now trying to install Slacko Puppy 7.0 on my tablet.
So far, it's looking promising...

I've now managed to install Android on one of the tablets.
It's running so slowly it's ridiculous.
It's Android. It's designed to run on phones. How can it be a struggle for it?

I'm now trying MX-Linux on one of the tablets. It seems to be working perfectly.
Tomorrow night, I shall see if I can install it.

Have you tried Sun Solaris? Or OS2/Warp?

Wikipedia informs me the first one is 64-bits, which is 32-bits more than my tablets can cope with.
It informs me that the 2nd one was last updated in 2001.

I refuse to believe there's a human being alive who can understand anything this man says in this video.

From 2 minutes on, it's just sounds that resemble words.

It's no NetBIOS or whatever it was called. NetBEUI?
