This is a woefully underpowered laptop I got for free! I'm working to make it into a secure portable machine (since it does support secureboot & TPM-backed disk encryption) to take on the go that I don't fear losing. This is mostly for doing programming & study, on stuff that doesn't require high-performances, so the 2 gigs of...
I have been following the exact steps as outlined in this tutorial video, with no oddities happening along the way:...
So I got this Commodore PC-10 III, which the sellers photos clearly showed a different one without that red button at the front and a small Floppy Drive. It also cost me around 200€...
I've gotten really interested in old Computers since I got my Commodore PET 2 months ago, so to play some good ol MS Train Simulator and Stronghold 2, I got this massive beauty. Here is a little size comparison between it and my main PC...

I installed ViewTube, and I’m really happy with the experience so far. The only thing is that it seems to automatically switch to the lowest possible quality and either takes a long time to switch back to my desired quality or just sticks there indefinitely....
