My current one is a refurb, originally manufactured in 2008. I own it since 2020, when it replaced a 2005-era system. It would be very hard for me to go any lower than that nowadays.
That's awesome. What are the specs?
Core 2 Quad with 4GB of RAM.
Nice one still definitely useable today
Yeah, though Debian 12 is pushing it.
Never used Linux but I know if plenty of 20+ year old machines still running it
