cousin: "Jerome...i think my computer's busted...there's no picture."
jerome5 (checking it out): "Hmmmm...yeah...i think you're right, it's definitely broken.  Ummm...you should probably get a new computer.  Let me...umm....throw this one away for you..."

I got one for £2 - 266Mhz :) Took a bit of hacking to get it to work, but runs as a nice little cheap server now.

You guys are sure making me feel good about the hardware I've got.

Three of the four PCs I'm running here are older/slower/smaller than the ones you're discussing.  :p

People who advertise computers for sale in my neighborhood *always* ask for way more than the machine is worth.  They just don't realize how fast "cutting-edge technology" depreciates.

I don't think I'd ever buy a brand new PC.
