    I don't use it much - it's an old Eee PC (think netbook class) that started life on XP and was upgraded to Win 7 starter thanks to some help from NiftyDigits. It struggled badly running that but seemed usable on Win 10 although I didn't try it for long and it's just sitting in a drawer now. I used to run it 24x7 headless but it didn't really have the grunt I needed so I just run an i5 desktop 24x7 now instead. I only keep it as it's small and still works.

    Going off topic, I was recently given one of these with the dreadful Xandros installed.
    I've tried it with XP + Asus drivers,and it's usable, initial install is around 3GB but as the storage is only 4GB, it's not got room for anything else.

    I'm looking for a really small Linux distro, but not a Puppy type variant.
    Porteus is one that I'm going to have a look at.
    Move along, nothing to see.
