Yup, Thanks to Pure Metal, I now have a new PC at home. Or at least the system part anyway. What amazed me is what is contained inside. From what I can see, I have:

-A 256MB RAM chip (w00t!)
-Onboard sound and USB ports (Nice.)
-A CD/RW drive (Not a fast one, but Double w00t! Still fantastic!)
-Ye olde floppy disk drive
-Network card (I think... not too sure.)

And thats all I could see after opening her up breifly. I need to get a new HD for her, and get my sister to get that monitor off her boyfriend for me, but other than that I can have her operational in a month!

Thank you Pure Metal. You have improved my life. :fluffle: :p :fluffle:

Well considering the Galileo probe had less processing power than a BBC computer they don't do too badly...
