orbit Posted April 16, 2013 Share Posted April 16, 2013 I have a 12 year old acer laptop which did run xp but I now have linux on it, video is a no go due to crap graphics card but fine for basic stuff. It has an 1.3GB AMD processor and pretty sure I upgraded the ram to 512 or 1GB can't remember off hand. Make me an offer... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
