So I was out collecting scrap the other day...being late as I was there was not much left...so I spot this monitor sticking out of a box and decide to have a look...and there was a computer in the box with it...
turns out the monitor is pooched...so I hooked it up to my wonky monitor and boot it up...wow!
Not sure how good the are, but it's a Dell Optiplex GX520...has dual 3.4 Ghz processors and not much else...but it works...needs more RAM...only has 500 MB but can add another bank...now I just have to find the 4400 DDR2 or something like that...I didn't grab the keyboard and it didn't have a mouse but I've managed to scrounge them up too...just working on a few tweaks...also scored a wifi stick so I can now post from home...
Oh, and it has XP Pro...with a freekin license key! Bonus...
Some days you think you get nothing but score...
