I acquired the PC named in the subject and was getting it back to good condition. I found all the drivers for Windows 98 SE and found a USB to
NIC driver that I had that still had drivers for 9x. I was playing
around with Protoweb and other retro legacy internet emulators. For the moment I am simply doing legacy games that don't require much memory (platforms and simple FPS). I tried Tiny Core Linux but that was useless when paired with such limited hardware. This is a cautionary tale of
trying to recreate the past, you see it for what it is and not what it
felt like.
I asked those on vogons.org what to do with it, maybe suggest some games
I hadn't played or run era period software.
