Mad jelly. My local Goodwill uses stickers with super glue-like adhesive and the retards love putting them directly on screens of practically anything possible.

Mine writes it on with a permanent marker. With a little rubbing alcohol, I can make my own prices.

I stopped using a T40 because it was basically unusable on the modern internet.
Also, no 10-bit anime.

Just cough up $60 and buy a core 2 duo thinkpad made this century.

all you can do really is to upgrade it's RAM. You can only go as far as 1 Gigabyte.

At this point you have 2 choices:
-Install Windows 98SE or XP and play 90s games
-Install a light linux distro and use it for non-gaming stuff, like a home server (owncloud and stuff)

>>55334050
we don't know because you told us nothing about it
just kit it out to max spec itemized in http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/Category:T30 and dualboot it with XP and debian/BSD or something
