Good news, Ubuntu LTS is now running on the Compaq Presario, but I had to remove Windows Vista (doesn't really bother me though). I would have prefered to have it dual-boot, but that wouldn't work because it kept hitting a size allocation error. Bad news, still running a single channel of 512MB RAM, which is very slow for those of you who don't know. I'll be getting a pair of 2GB RAM sticks sometime in the next month or two, and we'll see where it goes from there.

Whale. I'm a bit excited. I've had my hands on an old Compaq Presario v3500, and it hasn't worked for quite a while. However, it hasn't worked for some reason. But, yesterday, when taking tinkering with it, I took out a RAM card and it started up properly. So, I plan on putting a little bit of money into it and getting new RAM cards for it (it only accepts DDR2 unfortunately, so it is definitely a shitty tower), and installing a Linux-based OS (even though I have no idea how to work Linux, but it's never too late to learn). I already have a Ubuntu OS on a flash drive that I'm gonna test today, Wish me luck.
