    A fucking android tablet. The worst one on the market: even a browser would lag opening the simplest pace.

    But i was able to install Gentoo linux on it and hack enough to have fun. It was still pretty much unusable tough.

      This one is hard though. Coming from a poor family of a kid wanted an ipad but there’s no way we could afford it I’d try to get them the best we could afford. Those tablets sucked back in the day, but I sold a lot of them to parents who couldn’t afford the iPads pricetag

      Hey man, that shitty tablet probably gave you a life-long love for hacking. If it had been a fancy iPad, you would never have tried to switch it’s software.

        Unfortunately internal memory gave up quickly so only like 3 years of fun

        It was an Asus. Even a top tier one. Still shitty hardware.
