Okay so I found this old MacBook (I mean OLD, it even has a hot-swappable battery and an optical drive) and I have no idea if it’s even worth the effort of installing anything on it. What do you guys think I could do with it?

Edit: note that this is just from a live usb, it has 120GB storage

    I wrote media player but I meant media server. It could run Jellyfin and serve media to other devices on the network.

        I’m sure you’re right, there’s not enough CPU power to transcode on that old CPU, but I’d say it’s enough to stream some data. Hell, I’ve done it using an old Core2Duo Sony Vaio laptop…
