Because he was a good friend, I took his old XP machine AMD-2800

I decided to format the drive , put in 2 gigs of ram and install Win7


All went well except (as I already knew) it will not update until I
install a newer browser. The funny thing is I could not go to the
Microsoft site to download it with IE8.

I had IE11 on a USB stick but I just thought this funny.


Because the CPU does not have SSE2 I could neither install Firefox or
Chrome.

I've been playing with this, Philo

//What are the system requirements to install Brave?
Windows

An Intel Pentium 4 processor or later that's SSE2 capable//

You didn't even bother to read the specs, did you ?


No. Philo is a big boy now; maybe he'll use it on another computer.


So you didn't even bother to read his post ? He's not
interested in installing it on "another computer".


You have no idea at all of what Philo may or may not like.

I very much doubt that you are even aware that he's just repaired a
1930s radio for a friend. He's a great practical man, good with
computers and photography, and I think of him as a friend. He's
certainly not afraid of HIS shadow, Shadow!
