@dysfun@social.treehouse.systems i mean, the pentium m is just a pentium 3 with sse2

the lack of sse2 is why my thinkpad a30 is just slightly too old - i want to be able to boot it into a linux distro and have a browser

and too many critical pieces of software have either officially stopped supporting, or de-facto stopped supporting, x86 chips without sse2, because of [insert long rant about complex issues involving x86 floating point semantics here], such that you basically can't run anything but gentoo anymore

and who is going to run gentoo on a pentium3?
