gollark: I have no idea. I may be misremembering it, but it's definitely a Pentium of some kind.
gollark: Technically, the worst computer I have is probably my old ~2015 phone, which still sort of works (it can boot into recovery fine but not into actual Android, and the battery doesn't actually work and the USB cable doesn't fit half the time). Otherwise, the Windows XP laptop with a... Pentium 3 or something, I forgot, which is lying around somewhere.
