any ideas? it currently has a old 575 Celeron which we all know how that runs in todays world lol, I already put 3gb of ram in it, and only reason I'm messing with it was cause I got it for free basically and I have parts laying around to throw in it, first being it needed a screen which was easy fix since a old Toshiba ive had apart for years had a good one and it worked perfectly. So any ideas I would welcome it thanks

Lol cause gonna give it to my dad to use since a he don't have a laptop and b he needs one. So why not repurpose a old laptop like that? I know it can take a dual core and that should be good enough to do basic things with the laptop
