    "...and if you're asking why Justin Bieber Linux..."
  • @nottrevorallen
    i still remember when microsoft sued justin beiber linux LLC over their use of wordart in the 1.0 retail release. that version is very rare now, take care of it.
  • @joeschoe4477
    You need to get the Barbie version, then track down the legendary Barbie Debian for installation.
  • @DanaDoesStuff
    I love that the CPU paste blurring effects still let you see exactly how the paste gets applied πŸ™ƒ
  • @GaryBeltz
    For some reason I was expecting Justin Bieber's baby to come out of the speakers when that started up
  • @Nukle0n
    Thing with those PicoATX thingies, you gotta be sure they have enough juice on the 5v rail. Older ATX machines had the main vCore driven from 5v, this eventually changed to 12v. So if it's tuned for newer systems it won't deliver enough, the label on the original PSU says up to 12a of 5v.

    You’ll have to excuse me, Sean, if I skip my tenth PCBWay ad for the day.
  • @amyshaw893
    I find it incredibly entertaining that justin beiber linux is based on puppy linux, of all the distros they could have chosen
  • @R0ck4x3
    Man the censoring of the thermal paste application gave me good cackle πŸ˜‚

    "If you gaze too much to justin bieber linux edition, the justin bieber linux edition start to gaze you". FW Nietzsche Rolling Release, btw Arch.
  • @hardline2a
    I always love how you blur out the application of thermal paste 🀣
  • I really do want at least two of these, one to make into a windows 98/early XP era beast, and another to make into a ridiculously stupid small form factor sleeper
  • @jdmcs
    β€œWill it Bieber? That is the question.” And I have to say that, yes, it will Bieber, but the Bieber will break your heart on the Hot Wheels PC…
  • @Squonk06
    Definitely put Arch on there, even if it's just temporary before restoring Windows 98 onto it. There's nothing like running cutting edge Linux on hardware that was slow and limited even when it was new. I'd also love to see the Arch forum responses to a post asking for help getting this working. "RTF...wait, WHAT are you doing?!"
  • @daveshrum1749
    Omg 😲 the screen came up and I thought I was having an acid flashback ! Lol then I remembered no that's an actual computer they made on purpose.
  • @deadmetalbr
    oh man Bieber GRUB, that's some laser-guided marketing there
  • @TiredITGuy
    I wonder how well Haiku runs on it I'd love to see how many teapots that thing can handle πŸ˜‚
  • @CirnoBush
    ya know my fav thing justin beaver ever did was when he cameoed in that episode of csi.
