You can always install, either an old Linux distribution, or something
like FreeDOS if you know about DOS.
Also you may give Haiku OS a try (former BeOS clone):

Haiku currently only works on x86 systems. Minimum memory required is
128 MB. If compiling Haiku within itself, 1 G

If what you state is indeed the case, it definitely answers my question
as to whether a 450 megahertz machine with 512 megabytes RAM can be
considered a viable minimum system for my users.
And I think the answer is, that it *can't* b

Hi Lars!
Do you mean Chrome (proprietary) or Chromium-browser or Chromium
(another program)? My experience is that Lubuntu 12.04 works well with
the default Chromium-browser and 1 GB RAM. Now I have 1.25 GB. But I
like Firefox better (probably because I'm more used to it).

Hi Barry and thanks a lot for your email.
Indeed, with 256MB of RAM, Chrome/Chromium will crash. Chromium actually
crashes on my Test Laptop with 512MB of RAM. Firefox on low RAM machines as
far as I noticed is much stable.

My Opinion.
Personally I prefer a LTS version. in my case use lubuntu in the
office and in my home, don't like reinstall every 6 months a
fresh version of lubuntu (99.99% of update of versions don't
work). Because I do a lot of tunning, prefs, rec

Hello Lars,
I would strongly recommend to carry on with this after releasing 13.04
because everyone will be busy at the moment with testing and I don't want
to distract them :)
This is my huge next project. So, once we release 13.04, I will send an
email with plans, etc and discuss that with ever

Hello again amjjawad,
Well, the link doesn't say and I don't say that 700MB is the minimum
requirement for Lubuntu, only to install using the desktop iso with a
graphical installer.
"Alternate ISOs are for low-RAM PCs. Computers with less than 700 MB of
RAM are considered low-RAM computers. Here
Technically there is a much better reason of Lubuntu 12.04 not being an
official LTS.
According to the procedure for flavour approval (which was set up for
Lubuntu and for the flavours after it), one flavour is supposed to only get
LTS status after doing two releases and being approved by the Ubun
I have just finished downloading raring-desktop-i386 and I'll try to put
that on my Multi-ISO-Booting USB and try to install it on my Test Machine
(ASUS F3F with 1.86GHz Due Core and 512MB RAM).
Will keep you guys posted.
I'm not going to test Ubuntu, I don't think I will have time for this.

Hi,
I think last week, I have explained whether Lubuntu 12.04 is a *REAL* LTS
release or not on one of my replies. Today, I'd like to show that in an
image I just created it.
First, kindly have a read on this section:

Are you done?
Now, please h

Maybe it is writing to/from some buffers, probably swapping. Such
activities happen with small RAM, it can take a long time, but if you
patiently wait, it will (often) finish

Yes amjjawad, at least hard ;-)
Maybe easy for a guru, but hard for me. My experience (with Lubuntu
12.04+) is similar to what is recommended in the following link (I don't
know who wrote it, and maybe you disagree, but the sweet point 700 MB
RAM is stated twice).
