bought it, used it, upgraded it, abused it, upgraded it more, burnt the HDD down, rebuild it, salvaged it - still functional, waiting for a reason to rise again !

This is an alpha...this is not a beta. Yeah...and we're running it on production ! [LinusTech & SlickPC]   ~    More Power Than All the Computers in 1999! [Our Servers ^^]

we threw away the chassis back when I didn't know any better and it was a full tower. =[ Still have most the parts though, although I dont know where the processor is =/

I dream of 0s and 1s folding to my every command,

algorithms seeping from the back of my head when I need them.

Played this and LEGO Racers 2 on it. The T-rex maze in that land before time game was terrifying, slender isn't even close. Ended up taking it apart after getting a laptop. (To be fair, windows ME was that bad.)

Burnt that bitch down, then smashed her up with a sledge hammer :) Had to teach that Pentium processor a lesson!

I upgraded it from a pentium dual core e2140 to a core 2 duo,upgraded to 4GB of ram,added a graphics card to it to play light games.

when that wasn't enough anymore I salvaged the hard drive from it,lasted 5 years now and it's the hitachi deathstar HDD lol,and built a new pc.

still have the old one with the other parts in the basement,replace the HDD and it works fine,moms going to use it later on probably.
