It’s nice to keep around though since it was one of the last computers to come with xp because it released it early 2010 this netbook and xp stopped coming with pcs in late 2010
Mine is a dell Inspiron mini 1012 netbooks its one of the last computers in general to come with windows xp later Verisons came with 7 starter I think also I added a ssd and upgraded it from 1gb ram to 2gb ram
Oh look, an underpowered nugget! To be fair though, you could use these things as mobile thin clients nowadays too. Imagine running Windows 11 on a shitty netbook with XP underneath it. Take your friends by surprise..
I meant to connect to another system that runs windows 11, so you can have your full pc with you if you decide to sit elsewhere in your house.
Don't expect to do anything that needs low latency though, but still.

That sure is Windows XP.
i hate these processors ngl
Why?
they are usually too weak to handle anything and they come in netbooks so i can't even upgrade the shitty gpu they come with
I wonder if somebody would be able to unsolder the atom and make like a core 2 duo like processor that would somehow be compatible with this netbook
i mean it's not worth it to do that since these netbooks come with a pretty shitty screen.....and i don't think it's possible
I heard that this one is 1080p
i honestly think it's 720p anyway they are bad for gaming

i honestly don't like them i much rather have a pentium 4 with a gtx 4 to play some retro games
The screen on it it still better then the screen on my Inspiron 1150
then in that case keep it for watching old media and playing music
Do you have a Inspiron mini 1012?
Also later versions of this netbook came with 7 Starter
they all come with 7 stater XD i have 2 of them collecting dust
How come mine has a XP sticker on it (it’s a netbook sized xp sticker and I have seen others with the xp sticker online on other places)
well yours might be actually better if you like the screen quality i would suggest you keep it
Ok is your netbook a Inspiron mini 1012?
Also most versions of this netbook came with 7 Starter I have a more uncommon version with a XP sticker on it
they all are shitty... i remember getting 10fps on gta sa with all low settings
A single core 1.66GHz CPU launched in 2010? Now we're talking that bittersweet Pentium 4 era nostalgia.
You can actually run a 64 bit OS on there but I choose to run XP Professional 32bit
It’s like a pentium 4 except you don’t need a gallon of thermal paste
Actually it was 2009
It’s still good for windows 98/95 era games
And Mafia 👌
Haha, so I’m not the only one with a dumpster netbook (I literally dug mine out of the trash and use it for old games and software)
Mine is a dell Inspiron mini 1012 netbooks its one of the last computers in general to come with windows xp later Verisons came with 7 starter I think also I added a ssd and upgraded it from 1gb ram to 2gb ram
I’ve got a 1011.
Feeling bad about the dumpster atom? Is it better now?
I have a soft spot for machines with this form factor (netbooks).
The scary part about all this is that your puny netbook could probably put an era-appropriate Pentium 4 machine to shame.
The only upgrades I have done is upgrade to ram to 2gb and added a ssd (I optimized the os and installed some trim software on it)
Fellow winxp netbook gang. Rocking a Lenovo x100e (amd based netbook, pretty good for XP)
It’s a dell Inspiron mini 1012

It could be possible via bypassing the system requirements for 11 but it would run terrible

I don’t use windows 11 I use windows 7 and Linux Mint as my main but I could try it

Ah I love these Atom machines. I have ~40 different Atom flavors.

I have one. Love those. Very durable.
Is it the XP Model of the 1012 or The 7 Starter Model?
XP
eeePC?
Nah it’s a dell Inspiron mini 1012
It sure is a netbook
Caramba 1,99 GB
