kaidenshi, to random

Got me an old but new-to-me AsRock A300 DeskMini PC with a Ryzen 2400G. Microsoft says "bah, too old for Windows 11" which is how I got it (traded my HP mini PC that is Win11 supported to a friend who needs Win11 for work-from-home).

What to do with it? Why, run #OpenBSD of course!! I'm thinking minimalist backup workstation with cwm or i3 and as little else as possible that isn't in base already.

Firefox is a given, but apart from it and its dependencies what else would I really need? Thoughts? Opinions? Hit me.

@kaidenshi I always add Vim because I like to do all the Vim things -- like use a .vimrc.

I add ROX Filer as my minimal GUI file manager.

There are many guides to use #OpenBSD as a workstation, this one is mine:

Feedback welcome, tell me where I'm wrong so I can correct it.
