That’s wild. Why would anyone work so hard to keep such an outdated OS working? It’s like if someone bought an old, broken down car and spent all their time fixing it up when they could just buy a working new one.

Honestly though, r espect.

Hey, that’s basically my work computer at the university, but I only have 4 gigs of ram (and that’s only because I procured sticks of RAM from vacant offices in the department ).  Most folks lip along with 2 gigs.
