atoms are really shit
John Anderson
complete shit

if it's passively cooled, prepare to burn yourself. These are so fucking uncomfortable. They're useless, even for 25$.
Ian Stewart
I have one of these that still boots and even with lxde it's complete shit. Can't even shitpost from it because browsers crawl on it.
Lucas Kelly
Waste of money. I got a similar one for free 5 years ago and I use it as much as I paid for it.
Elijah Green
similar specs to my toshitba netbook, on which i also use LXDE because of 2GB ram
Noah Stewart
>atom You got ripped off
William Moore
I have something like this with 1 GB of RAM, hand-me-down from my brother. Is there anything interesting at all that can be done with these pieces of shit?
David Wood
Cook some eggs on it.
Connor Gonzalez
This desu
John Campbell
Looks fine dude, install Gentoo and put i3 on it, surfing the modern net is a pain but you can still do stuff with it.
Matthew Lee
>install Gentoo You would probably be dead by the time everything has compiled.
Charles Jackson
Not even good enough to be a basic web browsing machine anymore.

>calling a piece of electronics cute The more time I spend on this site the more I want to drown fags like OP

I got one of these for free from a friend of mine back in 2012. The battery in my T60 was shot and I needed something to take notes. But this was barely up to that task, let alone any other.
The Atom N270 was thoroughly outclassed by the pretty run of the mill T2400 in my T60, I think the latter was almost 4 times faster. Even under Xubuntu it was almost useless at everything, took forever to boot, took forever to start LibreOffice, web pages loaded at a glacial pace and any video above 480p was out of the question. Even 2012 Youtube dropped frames and froze. The screen was a really weird resolution, less than 1024x600, something I have not seen anywhere before or since. I remember doing a lot of vertical scrolling.
I'll concede that the keyboard was pretty good and the battery life, at around 6.5 hours, was also quite good for the time. But fuck me, I could be quicker than the N270 if I had a pocket calculator, a ruler and an HB pencil.

Posting from my Acer Aspire One N450 with 2gb. The touchpad is shit but the battery life is hilarious even with the dual core chip. I'm running Fedora 26 LXDE and Firefox 61 seems to be okay, Jow Forums loads decently which is all I plan on doing for now, I've been teaching myself Linux with it.
You will love the battery life on it for sure, I've gotten like 6 or 7 hours out of mine. I got it free.
