    I love how old PCs used to feel alive, you could feel every single part of its hardware and its speed and sound and everything. That's what made it good. Nowadays we have PCs with 2 seconds of boot time, you can't even get a good look at the booting screen.

      Still going strong, gotta use it while i don't fix those two, also is aoc really good?
