so i decided to make a project of making this old pos computer useful again. it has 690mhz processor, 30gb harddrive, and 124mb ram. i decided to install damn small linux and man it's actually fast. now i can't figure out how i can get internet if i can't connect it to ehternet and it doesn't have a wireless card. any ideas?
you think it will be hard finding a wireless card that works with this old computer?

there are two ways you can do this. One is to get an eithernet card and install it in the computer. For wireless you can get a wireless adapter. There are 2 versions one is installed directly into the computer and the other is installed with a USB port. If you have USB ports all you have to do is plug it it, but if you dont have the ports but your operating system has USB drivers then you will need to get a USB port thing that is installed into the computer.
