  • Its probably this vintage Dell i am using. I believe its a 1992 version. I can ask a question, take a shower and if i am lucky, an answer after towel drying. Its really slooooooooooooooooow!
  • I heard of people tuning a C64 until it could run VERY basic internet stuff.
  • I'm not sure, but I had an old 8080 configured as a firewall at my church. It had no hard drive--the Linux OS, firewall, DHCP server, and an apache web server were loaded from a floppy disk at boot. I'm sure it could have run some basic Internet tools--a text-only web browser, IRC, telnet, etc. Really, any computer with networking hardware of any kind, whether a modem or a network adapter, should be able to connect to the Internet, though the tools available may be limited.
  • Whatever it is, it's probably in the possession of the US military or the Government - might have been used in ARPANET
  • I still have some old 1980's computer that only runs DOS somewhere in my closet. It has 512 kb for memory I remember.
  • Im running a ancient IRIS-3000. Runs fine online, limited, and slow, but it works.
