Atrocities, you brought back an old memeory.

I used to have an old Compaq 2200 running windows 95. For years, I kept the default config but over time, components failed. I still have it in my closet, a hulk of metal, duct tape, and good intentions. 120mhz processor, 32mb ram, 3.1 gb hard drive (shipped with a massive 1.2 gb drive), built-in sub-woofer and speakers, CD-rom running windows 95.

It lasted for a good 10 years and I did everything from designing websites to playing video games to work on it. It still works, but I had to join the 17th century back in 2003 and bought a new computer.

On the flip side, I bought an emachine once, lasted 3 years (two of which was spent with a lunch-box-cold-pack cooling system keeping it from catching fire). It ended its life flying across my front yard where it was savagely beaten with a metal bat.
