Early 2000's

| What where some note worthy laptops, desktops, linux distros, in the early 2000's? I dont remember much from that time.


| I remember HP Vectra computers being used my workplace. Compaq laptops too, though I can not recall the models.
A friend had a HP Kayak workstation which he used for graphic related work. A really fast machine it was, and expensive too.
RH5 was being used quite often. Along with Slackware but I do not remember the release number. It was by that time I tried Debian for the first time, which I really liked because of how small its minimal install was.


| Oooooh ive seen a HP kayak at a recycling place, I should've picked that up.


| I have a HP Kayak, big desktop machine with Pentium 2. I need to repair it.

How was it at its time? They have a reputation of having been quite capable machines back then.


| Had a toshiba tecra 8000 way back when. P2, 256mb ram and win2k


| >>153335 I got it like year ago, but I heard it was pretty nice machine for it's time.


| As far as Linux distros go, "early 2000s" was pretty much dominated by Red Hat/Mandrake.


| >>151985 Weren't shitty Emachine laptops common back then?


| I still have one, yea yea they count lol


| I had a Compaq, an HP and a Toshiba Satellite from those times. Debian and Slackware were quite popular, I actually liked Gentoo a bit too; FVWM was a very good WM back then.
