Once got given a Compaq Deskpro Pentium2 266mhz with 256MB SD RAM, I ran XP on it just because I had to have the shiny new OS, it ran ok at the desktop, anything else like opening a browser and attempting to open explorer and it was slow as shit lol, this was before cable modems/routers were common place from ISP's and 56k was the standard, I got 512kb broadband and had to install a PCI broadband modem

man that system would lock up when trying to download torrents and maxing my connection

the good ol' days
