if you are a new #NetBSD user here is a good way to think about what to expect on NetBSD: NetBSD 11.0 runs about equally as well on my Sega Dreamcast or a 30 year old Pentium II PC as it does on any modern computer that i have. this goes both ways. to know whether your modern gaming pc will be able to do something, you should first ask yourself: "could i do this on a Sega Dreamcast or a 30 year old Pentium II PC?". if the answer is yes, you will probably succeed! if the answer is no, it still might be possible, but here be daemons. for example: - can i ssh into it and edit files and compile little programs? yes! absolutely! definitely. - can i run a webserver? indeed you can. - can i install Steam? hahahahaha no. - can i run X11? yep! may need to do some tweaking depending on your hardware though. - can i run KDE plasma? outlook not so good.
