# On further messing with the Lifebook P1120
### Entered in vim on Fujitsu Lifebook P1120
### 20190219

I failed to get Windows ME installed on the Fujitsu. Then
I installed antiX Linux. It was okay. nothing that made me
super pleased. It was slow on the Transmeta Crusoe 800MHz 
proc and 256MB RAM. I installed ratpoison on it and that 
sped it up, uninstalled the desktop manager -- slim -- and
that did more for it.

Today I downloaded openBSD and installed it on a new CF 
card in the laptop. It is peppy as hell. The native wifi 
works (it did not in Linux, I was using a PCMCIA wifi 
card). I told the installer to go ahead and enable the DM.
Ctrl+alt+F3 of course lets me go to the console, ctrl+alt+
F5 takes me to X. I added a repo to the system and installed
my normal software, git cloned my dotfiles, and I am at
home. So far I am liking this OS. I think I'll keep it.
