I want to put OpenBSD on one of machines I have and use it as a terminal to do various stuff, like learning, programming, exploits maybe (they say that there are not much exploits for OpenBSD) and other experiments. Will Pentium 4 (idk if HT would do anything) and 512MB of RAM do it?

I have OpenBSD runing on Pentium III, 2x128 MB RAM, so I would say yes.

And this PC can run X.

repeating from another thread, nothing promotes good resource management like real world physical constraints

Pentium III and IV will only consume electricity and your learning sessions will be way more expensive than necessary. If you already have a laptop or any other computer that you use everyday, install Virtualbox and create a virtual machine for your *BSD and use that as learning grounds.

>>141955 I don't pay for electricity yet so it will be okay

>>142287 So then you do not want to learn and experiment with *BSD. You want a toy to play with and you have decided aleady it is that P3/P4 machine. But it'ok though.

>>142429 no, not a toy. I just happen to have a P4 machines lying around and I don't want to mess with VMs/dual boot on my main PC.

You can still learn with a toy I don't see the problem
