Web browser for windows 98 wireless
I have 3 old PC's similar to that myself, but over the years that I actively used them I upgraded the RAM to the max the mainboard would use and installed larger hard drives as I ran out of space on the drives. At one time all those older PC's were part of my local area network, so I could transfer files and print to printers connected to my main PC.
Even with those upgrades I eventually had to park them for daily use because they just weren't strong enough to run modern programs.
IMO, let that old PC die gracefully. I don't know why I'm so attached to this computer but I am. It does have a lot of old docs, jokes, writing clips etc.. I tried attaching an HP external rewritable CD drive to download all my docs but it couldn't download a compatible driver. Hoping I can figure out how to use it though - been using windows only for awhile now.
Just one more thought though - if I do upgrade to Linux - I am worried the old versions of MS office might not work anymore. It wouldn't accept an adapter for WIFI usage either. Maybe my poor baby might wind up a donation to a more techie person who wants a new toy yet.
Doesn't it work better than Opera? Rocket Hazmat's answer vaguely covers that, and opera has better rendering in some cases. Show 1 more comment. Check KernelEX's wiki for more info on what programs you can run.
