Just found my first desktop...

[DarrenP]

I just found my very first desktop in my closet... I booted it up to my surprise it turned on... 

 

So this computer i used up until about 2010...It's a compaq Deskpro 4000,  It has:

Pentium II

64MB of RAM, yes 64MB...

It has a 3GB HDD

Came with a 1024x768 Display

Windows 98 / MSDOS

Has a Floppy Drive

52X CD Drive

 

I'm not quite sure what i should do with it... I will keep it, maybe i'll run Roller Coaster Tycoon on it! Any suggestions on what i should do with it?

Pictures included are not mine:

That's a high fucking end display for a p2

See what happens to roller coaster tycoon when you put a gtx titan in that thing.

Some kind of modern art of memories, or recycled IMO. Unfortunately, there there aren't too many useful things to do with a machine that old

I know right... this thing was a high end PC when my uncle bought it back years before i was born... It used to be his computer in his office, before he gave it to my grandfather, and my grandfather gave it to me.

You could make some kind of badass router out of it. Looks like there are two ethernet ports.

[Birdman]

Windows 98? 

[Yummychickenblue]

You should take a pic of the computer without the side panel

I'll put up a pic of mine later. My first rig is trash compared to this one, haha.

[StormtrooperStu]

Do they do a GTX 780 AGP ?

[Denned]

You can always tell how beast a desktop machine is, by the amount of serial pots on the back.

Sadly, my old laptop might be higher end than this.

[ciprian97pop]

ohh... now I'm going to download rollercoaster tycoon just because you remembered me of it

I remember playing it last summer after every wan show for 5-6 hours straight(that happened from 5-10 am :3 )

[SirReallySam]

This is really cool

 

I remember I found my first Packard Bell for sale (the first PC I owned)

 

Ran Windows XP (Like a Boss)

I remember thinking ahhhh lovely, but I will never buy it

 

The first PC my family had ( when I was alive )

 

I think ran Windows 95
