Now you have a separate PC for printing only? Good to see old hardware having some use after that many years

I wasn't expecting anything that low, it has to run Windows 7. I expected something from Ivy Bridge or Haswell.

I've done it before, it works surprisingly well if you are just using it for office and web browsing. Though because some only come with AGP slots, don't expect to be doing much HD YouTube.

 

Pentium 4 HT yeye.
