Revive your old Computers
By Akmal Hisyam
Linux is always recommended for someone who wish to revive his old PC. But some linux distribution such as Ubuntu is quite heavy. I remember using Ubuntu on my Pentium 3 machine where it was quite slow but still enjoyable. Maybe someone with Pentium 2 machine cannot use Ubuntu at full experience at all. Luckily, there is a lot of lightweight linux distribution alternatives. One of distro that grab my attention is WattOS. WattOS is based on Ubuntu but had been rebuild to become more lightweight and need lower hardware specifications. WattOS is not only lightweight, but use lower energy compared to other OS while enabling yo to use all the features you expect. So if you want to reduce Carbon Dioxide emmision and save the suffering mother earth, use this OS. There are three desktop version of WattOS available. * wattOS - The core desktop system using a fully featured Gnome desktop
* mWattOS - Milliwatt a smaller desktop system using XFCE as the core interface. (known as mWOS)
* µWattOS - Microwatt an even smaller desktop utilizing a minimal desktop Openbox window manager or command line. Ideal for appliances, small systems, kiosks, or old computers. WattOS is still in beta.
