  • In this video I tried out an OS me and my friend found called PsychOS on some older computers! It was lots of fun to play with and it worked well on most of the computers i tried, except for the last which.... didn't work very well to say the least!

    I think its cool that PsychOS was made on an Acer Intel Atom netbook, literally made on the hardware it was designed for. so sick

    This reminds me that I should make a proper tools USB stick for work. We see a lot of different computers at my office and all of them need nuking and reimaging. Something like this OS would make for a great tool I think. Plus I get to play DOOM on my off time :D

    Have you tried the new DSL (Damn Small Linux) ?... It also fits on a CD and runs on very old hardware. It's now based on AntiX Linux which is itself lightweight too, but more robust, if you need a few more features. They both are Debian based, and have APT package install support.

    "I got a lot of Windows 2000 around here because Windows 2000 is one of the only good versions of Windows"
    As a kid I was fortunate to grow up in a household with not one, but two quality Windows 2000 towers on one monitor/keyboard/mouse using a Linksys KVM Switch. They both ran without issues and gave my childhood this illusion of computers being flawless magical devices. We ditched one tower and upgraded the other to Windows XP in 2005 and replaced the second with Vista in 2009 and the magic quickly vanished.

    I think psychOS for older systems would work great if they used a BSD as a base. Maybe also use a very simple graphical interface too.
    Those tend to be lighter.

  • @billkillernic

    It likely wasnt the computer there is a thing (mostly noticed since SSDS but it existed forever) called random iops which is like input ouput operations you need a lot of those for the medium that runs the OS... for reference a x24 speed CDROM can like have 1.5 IOPS or thereabout... a USB (depends on the model ) can have like 5 to 50ish, a 7200 rpm HDD about 100ish (which is ok but like still laggy ) an ssd can have thousands or a lot more..
    So yea that's why you didnt have a keyboard as you thought in order to boot the text editor the CD drive's IOPS capability was overwhelmed and couldnt handle your keyboard inputs on top of that so the OS didnt even know you where typing once it finished the IOPS for booting the editor you could type (at a speed less than 1.5 char per second assuming no background app crunching any IOPS speed)
    And if you are like "but I was getting better speed with live cds when I was a child" where you did and you didnt... most life CDs where actually DVDs and e.g x16 on a DVD is much faster than x16 on a CD (has to do with sector sizes) and probably the drive was connected with a SATA cable and even if it was a CD rom it probably was a x48 or x52 and it still was laggy (not as in your video but still) you just dont remember well
    Also part of it has to do with the OSes being lighter when you were a child.

  • @sorenpx
    @sorenpx 12 วันที่ผ่านมา

    I've only started the video but I want to go ahead and say the terms "486" and "32 MB of RAM" don't really go together. I'm not saying that no 486 ever had 32 MB of RAM but I never ran across one. I think my dad's 486 laptop in the 90s had either 4 or 8 MB and his desktop maybe had 16 MB. If they were going to go through the trouble of making an OS that would run on a 486, they should've really committed to that and made something would run on a typical amount of RAM of the era.
