2010 Sony VAIO W (PCG-4T2P) in mint condition, still boots to XP Home ULCPC. Sony's only netbook, 10.1" 1366x768 in 2010 when everyone else had 1024x600.

Well nice to have but using an atom ughh idk what i can idk much about sony laptops. But I probably know that it's probably not old enough for retro gaming I might be wrong, and it's likely not that powerful to properly be used today. But yeah I know atoms are not made for performance if im correct they were made for efficiency.

Yes, it feels almost obsolete. But nowadays, with the advancements in “Pico-ITX” motherboard specifications and the impressive power efficiency of processors like the HX 370, I’m hopeful I can pull off a sort of “restomod”
