Not sure, but this one is a 2007 piece of art
Older machines running Xfce brings me joy.
Xfce on Debian is my preferred flavor these days - regardless of machine power.
Ubuntu 12 on an Intel atom 270m with an nvidia chip set with 125mb ram lol
Those Tualatin core CPUs were absolutely fantastic. They doubled them and made the Core2. I had one running for 10+ years. I don't know what it was about the bios but it was the fastest boot PC I ever built.
the theme tricked me into thinking this is Cinnamon
I got the icons and themes directly from a Mint install on another machine (cause I couldnt find these online) 😁

Pretty sure my dad's secondary desktop I used for my first Linux install had a 1.2 GHz Duron or something and 512 MB. I'm pretty sure I got that funky compiz fusion 3D-cube desktop running on there 😅

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
