no upgrades other than the hard drive, it didn't come with one though. although this is just about the max config of this that you could've gotten in 2006 afaik.

this one? sure, it's a ThinkPad Z61m, TYPE 9450-D9U blah blah blah
Intel Core 2 Duo T7200, ATI Mobility Radeon X1400, 2GB DDR2, 500GB 7200RPM HDD (came with 120GB 5400RPM), 1680x1050 LCD, 9-cell battery (with about 60% capacity), and 0.3mp webcam
i've run GIMP on Windows, Linux, Haiku even, felt the same either way. so like at this point I just don't care. and plus I use content aware fill, like, a lot. will not be using WINE, too much of a headache/
that was definitely more of an early 2006 thing, Windows Vista came out in late 06 for manufacturers, but I think it was definitely relevant at the time
the main change was that it came out in an era of faster computers lol
yeah that's fair, and I don't really mean the UI layout or anything, that's fine. I'm talking about the fact that everything feels buggy and slow, like it'll crash at any minute. I can't stand it. if you like using it, that's great, i just can't.
also I use a pirated copy of CS6
actually this thing is dual booted with XP Pro SP3 and Vista Home Premium SP2
ahh i don't have anything old enough for Windows Me :(
GIMP is a jankfest.
running Haiku on my T410 but yea I tried that, couldn't get school WiFi to work :\
i'd say it was more because the hardware requirements lol, if it came out in, say, 2008, I feel like people would've already had better computers and it would've been better received. that being said, it'll be fine on high end hardware as far back as 2004 I believe
vigorous googling :3
