I just remembered I had my dads old laptop he gave me when I was about 5 under my desk, and I booted it up and it still works! The battery lasts like 9 minuites thoguh, and it only has a 166mhz processor, and 128mb of ram, and a 6GB HDD, floppy drive and a CD drive, amazingly. I don't know if the windows 98 (upgraded from 95 or NT, I believe) still works, its doing a bunch of disk checks and stuff, but I managed to get it to boot linux from the CD drive. So what should I do with it newgrounds?

found my dads old laptop...

You should make a video of you throwing it at shit. It would be quite a laugh I suppose.

Wait, use a baseball bat or hammer instead.

You can save it and sell it some other time.

... Or you can do the fun thing and smash it!

Great Job!

I think you should just store the damn thing. It can't do much but be marveled at. Just imagine how exciting it will be if you don't look at it for twenty more years.
I guess you could use it for some joke. Bring it to class like you're going to use it or something.
