Nostalgia

I had a guy bring me a laptop that wouldn't power on today. Got it on the bench to find the power button was broken off the ground trace of the mobo. Had to tear it down to repair it and holy cap it has a socket 462 AMD Athlon XP 1700. I was amazed it still worked. Knowing how hot those chips used to run makes it pretty badass. That it still works almost 15 years later.
