I was wiping this old laptop to sell or give it away. Couldn't resist putting Fedora Silverblue on it to try it out. It's very slow but I was able to check my e-mails in the browser, big win.

Always fun to see old hardware running modern distributiins

Looks great! How does Fedora Silverblue do with hardware with such low specs? Been trying to find a good replacement OS for a machine around that age and was considering going with FSB but was worried it would be too heavy on the system.

    For actually using the machine I would go with another Fedora Atomic distribution, such as Sway, or the XFCE or LXQt Fedora Desktops.

    Appart from being a bit slow because of full fat Gnome it was very nice and usable.
