@Stuxnet I usually refuse unless it's reasonable and I'm paid, but he's helped me a lot in the past
-
@devTea @beggarboy I know it's a bag of wank but it's all my friend has for work
-
devTea240886y@DucksCanCode if it's because he can't afford a better one then I'm sorry to be rude
-
@devTea no it's fine, he could probably get the money if he wants to, but he has no idea about tech and this'll do for what he wants.

@DucksCanCode Still. This paired with an HDD isn't even on the pain scale anymore.
I consider 4gb ddr3 ram machines as borderline trash. This isn't supposed to be a attack on him as a person or anything, it's just my duty that no other human being should suffer from "using" that machine.

Friend found a crappy netbook and asked me to set it up... With Windows 10... I'd normally tell him to boil his head, but he's a good friend.
So I told him Lubuntu or similar would be a lot better because it's got 1GB DDR2 and a Celeron. Nope, adamant on Windows.
I give in, get him a license key and install it. As I expected, it ran like shit. I showed him, he gave in and said I can install Linux.
Went for Lubuntu, he hates it and doesn't want it.
He called a pawn shop and asked how much it'd be. They said it needs Windows (?!?).
Guess what he's just asked me. Gormless twat.
