Memories...

All this talk of SETI Classic, then I go extricate an old case and find an almost complete PC inside. Plug in power and it boots. The event log says it last had power on June 20th 2004.

This might be why it's been unused for so long...

Katmai was released in 1999 and as shown used 250nm. Now we're just starting on 45nm. Just imagine how big/heat producing today's processors would be at 250nm

Anyway, once I'd sorted out some keyboard issues so I could use it, this revealed itself...

Remember that?

Sold? I'm surprised you got away with that.

Mind you, I hear RDRAM can go for a fair packet. Unfortunately there's only 256MB in this system.

The PC was turned on to check it's health before being dismantled for the last time.

I guess I could offer the parts here if anyone's really desperate.
