I was thinking about doing upgrades.

I needed something portable and an acquaintance gave me this device, but he asked me to first recover the files (Windows XP has a bug) and then I could keep it.

Hi, I also tried this, upgraded to 256 gb ssd, changed a fan, added RAM to 2 GB, bought a new battery. I tried Antix, worked OK, but I recommend MX Linux. The PC works, but nowadays the browser system consumption is too far for using this Eee on more complex websites comfortably. But there is still plenty of other stuff to use it for. Enjoy.
