Hate to break it to you, but the Pentium 4 was released in the year 2000.

Yeah, that's probably why GP was compiling Gentoo on it ten years later: By then it had become a little too tired for Windows, but still quite viable with a crisp Linux distro on it. In case you thought you saw some discrepancy there, I think you're mistaken.

I only had a P3, which is why I thought it was a good use of my time to set up distcc with the other computer in the house, a Celeron 333.

Funny how your priorities change over time.

Compiling Gentoo on a Pentium D was a great way to keep my dorm room nice and toasty
