So, my dad's turned into a senile sack of dementia pudding and I've been going through his old stuff.

Today's dust-covered gem is an (inflation adjusted) $5,350 laptop. No idea if he paid that much for it or if he got it cheap later on, but if he did drop that cash on it, I guess his brain rot started long ago.

This thing's an absolute beast for its time. On paper, it's a marginally higher spec machine than the desktop I was gaming on into mid 2002, and its small, dull screen is, bizarrely, pin sharp and goes all the way up to 1400x1050.

Someone has tossed Windows XP on it, which seems like a bit of mistake to me. It's a little sluggish where as I'm sure 98SE would run like lightning on this thing.

Does anyone have any recommendations for what I should do with it?
