  • Flash is now defunct so I can finally run Ubuntu on my iBook G4!!
    Jk I use a Thinkpad muahahahah

  • lol i thought why was this pc running so smoothly even though it was from 2003 then i noticed this video was filmed in 2010. I doubt it would run as smooth now even on the same OS because websites have become more resource demanding and heavier.

  • Damn, this video takes me back. Ubuntu 9 was my first distro, and 10 was much the same in pretty much everything. Now I'm using Linux Mint because I miss the old Ubuntu

  • In 2021, just get a 200$ laptop and install Linux on it. Cheap and easy

  • "when flash goes away"
    a decade later, about time! 😀

  • 2021 flash is completely dead and disabled by adobe unless your in south africa

  • I come from the future, from 2021 with a message… Flash is gone, dead, deprecated. You should now try HTML5 YouTube on Ubuntu Linux on this G4 :).

  • 1:32 That aged well though I do not think this computer could play YouTube videos.

  • hi, have you an idea what to do nowadays with an old Imac G4 7450 with old OSX 10.5.8 with 768MB RAM? No more browsers to download that still work safe. I am thinking about installing Debian Jessie..
    Edit: I finally found out And the answere is no, because my old G4 7450 has a Nvidia Geforce MX4, which uses NV-Dirvers. They worked fine with version 11, but this version is only compatible with a very old Linux Kernel. Modern NV-drivers do not really support this Card. No other drivers for that card work with that PPC Linux right now. This is sad, because I have to look what I do with my old G4..

  • what a coincidence i was just installing ubuntu 20.04 LTS

  • Ubuntu really has changed. But several UI elements did stick for a while, and Ubuntu 10.xx is basically identical to versions up to 14.xx, and even then 16.xx was still extremely similar. 18.xx was a bit different though.

  • May i enjoy your picture for a very private and sensual reason. Ohhhhhhhh!!!!

  • "Perhaps in the future when flash goes away, this won't be a problem" He was probably not expecting that to be 10 years.

  • I don’t speak for 2010 but it’s easy to play DVD’s in 2019 — install a package called libdvd-pkg and reboot, then use GNOME MPV or VLC for fast video playback

  • YouTube used to need flash. Ironicly, YouTube mighy suddenly work on that system.

  • This is definitely gonna change with the power 9 computer from Raptor engineering. Especially since it uses more modern tech.

  • Hello from April 16, 2019. Hooray for the future! How did you know Flash would go away? You David are a genius. Btw I tried Ubuntu about 7 years ago on a PC. It worked okay but had significant unavailable drivers. 73.

  • Showing off two of my favorite movies in just one video. Great 🙂

  • My first Linux distro Ubuntu 11.04 or 11.10 now for 5 year im using linux full time
