Socket 939 CPU questions

Hi, I would like to ask how can you recognize a socket 939 CPU from the AM2 equivalent without looking for the info by the code.

I really loved my Symbian Nokia phones... too bad the OS died Yeah, I remember using the S60 v1 version of the Nokia Ngage, a great phone, with its 104Mhz ARM7 cpu. That was a real full smartphone that already had all the features that years later became usual for all the phones. But in the later …

Obviously the original 3310 was great and still today with a new battery. Imho its only problem is the lack of sent messages folder and too few memory for the sms in …

eh. there is nothing really gigabit about it. its still going through the usb 2.0 chip, along with everything else, its all shared bandwidth on a single bus. disk, io, usb ports, network etc. I understand it. I read also something about a change in the power regulator if I'm correct, maybe the …

I imagine that the power requirements are also bigger for the Gigabit Ethernet, isn't it? Maybe for this refresh update revision they could try to add 512MB of ram and to save costs without the wireless module that it's already not expensive to buy.

my beloved Nokia 6131 has become useless. I didn't know this. Anyway just like with the analog televisions, I imagine that in the future, mobile frequencies would switch to 3G only frequencies and above, so old tech will become useless just like with the 5 volts to 3 volts sim cards phones switch. …

Old feature phones / smartphones

Hi all, I'd like to know if anyone use or collect older feature phones and smartphones. In the past I liked to upgrade every times I could but then newer pc/components and phones hw became boring so I began to collect and use older hardware. For the phones/smartphones I think the best moment was …

Re: Old computers for daily tasks?

in Milliways
Lately I used a K6-2+ trying to build a "modern office pc" but at the end the only modern distro/kernel that still runs, freeze often and beside it the power of the K6-2 isn't enough for daily usage. Now I'm running a Raspberry Pi 1 based on an ARM11 700 @ 1000Mhz cpu with 512Mb of ram and a Linux …
