I own a very very old PC. The monitor for the ancient thing broke. So now its connected to the TV. It is actually very useful and helpful.
1. Get a good browser. Old PC's such as mine has low specs. 512mbs of RAM, 3.33 GHz Celestron Processor... A good browser for painfully slow PC's is Pale Moon. It is such a wonderful little piece of software. It has the looks of Firefox, but has a lot of unused features cut. This browser is amazing!! Firefox only let me watch 360P videos, with Pale Moon, I can watch 720P video at 20fps!!!
2. Keep it clean and fast. Delete unwanted files and uninstall unused programs regularly. Once your PC gets too slow, you will feel very mad...
3. Backup movies. If you backup tons of movies, you can enjoy them without having to look at small screens!
4. You can even get some old games! I have Battlefield 1942 on mine! I had a blast playing it this weekend. It looks so cool on the large screen! Try not to get viruses though...
Thats about it folks! I'm very busy with school.

Really sorry
I am very exhausted from all of this school work... But today, I will give you a special post.
You must know right now that I do not like Intel very much... But Intel is definitely the way to go. But I have a suggestion for Apple. I was wondering if Apple can produce a G6 chip. It will be built cheap and designed for the poor. That way Apple can expand its market to the poor as well. It could use the G5(?) architecture so that there are plenty of apps which support it!
I am very tired, but think about it! It is very possible!

Sick
I've been pretty sick the past few days :(
I would like to note that I was missing school :)
But I'm barely able to do something until now.
Now I will like to start a debate.
Apple in 2005 v.s Apple now.
It's certain that the computers back in 2005 were no match against the ones today. But here's the thing. Is everyone crazy about the Macbook or whatever? Not really. But back in 2005, it was those people who actually appreciated technology that bought Macs. Back then, everyone was so shocked when Apple released something new. But now, its just like, seen that, go on... One could say that Steve Jobs was leading the company in 2005 but now its Tim Cook(?). I would completely agree with you... In 2005, Apple was not even close to the size of Microsoft, but Apple had pride. Honestly, Apple was at it's hight after it released the iPhone. Thats when the cash start pouring in.
Howdy folks, I'm really not feeling very well, I'll catch ya'll later.

The music PowerPC
I find that listening music while doing work is rather relaxing. PowerPC Macs can do just that. Using Itunes, VLC or any other music player, you can listen to just about anything while doing your work. If you have more then 1 GHZ ( I recommend), you can even go on youtube and listen to whatever you like while doing your stuff.
That's about it! My posts are very short these day, sorry, but I really do not have much time. I might manage 1 or 2 posts per week, if I'm not that busy, then I can probably do more :)
Thank you for reading!

New school
For those of you who are students (just like me), PowerPC Macs make awesome working computers! I use my iBook G4 as my "typing" laptop as well as my any other school work that requires a computer. I'm only in grade 7, a laptop is not needed at this moment. But once you get into higher grades, laptops will be very useful.
Sorry, I really do not have time for posts, I changed to a private school this year. It has MUCH more homework.

The Pirate Bay and PowerPC Macs
Who doesn't know the thepiratebay? NOBODY.
Well why am I talking about the piratebay if everyone knows it?
This is why: For those of you who have PowerPC macs, it;s very hard to find the software you need, thats why there is thepiratebay. I buy my software only if it is on ebay :/. But if I can't find it, I turn to thepiratebay as a last resort. I don't recommend you to use thepiratebay, but if you have to, go ahead.

File servers
Do you have a old PC? But you don't know what to do with it? Well a file server would be great for it.
You can access backup files and stream videos from a file server.
The way I do it is by downloading filezilla server and installing it. Its very easy. It's very useful in some cases, if you have a collection of movies, you can always back your movies in your file server and watch them later!
Hope this helped you a bit.
Sorry, I can't post much these days, I'm very busy.
