KISSmyOS, 1 year ago

I used to play around with an original Eee PC 700 quite a bit.
The most interesting experiment was installing Debian without X and using that as a desktop OS.
I used links2 in framebuffer mode to browse the internet, alpine for mail, cmus for music, fbi to view images, mplayer to watch movies, mc for file management and tmux for multi-tasking. It worked surprisingly well and solved the issue of the tiny storage, anemic processor, low RAM and small screen, but only after you’ve memorized all the keyboard commands.
