I don’t know. You should make sure it doesn’t have a Realtek Wi-Fi card. Otherwise, it looks fine. I found the Linux Hardware report for it here: https://linux-hardware.org/?probe=7144bb41

I think the price to performance doesn’t look the best, though. Maybe go for a Thinkpad instead?

More importantly, can it run doom?

You joke but it would be an awesome project. Maybe replace the screen with a real LCD, shove an rpi inside etc.

$500 might be a stretch, It weren’t for the horrible keyboard, and horrible screen, it might be worth putting a raspberry pi into as a sleeper project.

Yes I realize it’s a joke.

Be sure to wear your hacking goggles while flying through hyperspace, wouldn’t wanna catch any bugs in your eyes at such fast speeds.
