10.4's cutoff is generally the presence of a FW port. The 466 just has a DVD drive and faster clock speed, the 366 is still pretty good.
I think this is probably my favorite model (next to the Tangerine one for sentimental reasons (it was my first laptop)).
I'm glad yours was cheap. For some reason, they're hard to find (at least in the US), and expensive when found, so I overpaid quite alot for my collection. Another thing is that the Indigo (which yours is), is hard to find in good cosmetic condition. Every one I've come across has had some unsightly fading of the rubber from a deep blue to a kind of greyed out blue-ish color. Yours looks to be in decent condition, fortunately.
Anyway, I hope you enjoy it!!

10€ is really cheap for that.
Lucky. My first laptop was a Presario 1247, got it brand new for christmas in 99. That thing had the worse screen on it of any passive displays I had seen.
Techknight: I was (and am) well treated, and often quite spoiled 
But it wasn't my first computer, per se. My "first" computer was a generic Pentium II PC that ran Windows 95, when it felt like working (which, sadly, was almost never). I kinda wish we still had it (it got either lost or stolen (never found out for sure) during a move about 15 years ago), as I could've probably got it working better than new with what I know now, seeing as it suffered from fatal (and in retrospect, quite simple) software problems for most of its existence in our house, although I did figure out how to reinstall Windows 95 on it one day.
Anyway, back on topic now. This is bibilit's thread.
