Found an hp p2 1124 pc...super basic super proprietary computer from the w7 days for 13 dollars Ata thrift store about a week ago..the one redeeming aspect was it had a legit windows 10 retail license on it..after 2 hours I was able to get the iso image from it and transfer it to another pc I had..win win for me
A lot of late 2000s machines are being thrown out nowadays. Shame because I was able to run windows 11 on my core2duo with no issues. A normal person probably wouldn’t be able to tell it was a 16+ year old computer.
@@UncleMikeRetro Actually I added an SSD and 8GB ram and it wasn’t half bad. No different (actually better imo) than these dual core laptops you still see sold new and most of those only have 4GB ram and EMMC storage. Trust me you’d be surprised what you can do with some of these older machines if you know how to upgrade them properly. No normal PC user would be able to tell the difference between that and a cheap laptop from Walmart...and that’s not even mentioning what’s possible with 1st,2nd and 3rd gen intel chips that are being thrown out in droves these days.
I love this stuff. I haven't been to the recycler in a long time
we have to get you out more 😎
With the heat shroud, does it actually help with air flow? So many toys! Just so little time!!
It must or else why have it? Yeah time is always short
looked like a voodoo banshee video
naw, it was a GeForce 6200 OM if I remember right. The banshee would never have had a DVI connector

nicely done!
I'd just want to take everything and try and fix it and then not be able to afford the electricity to run it all, lol.
ha! they think this stuff is worth a mint
@@UncleMikeRetroOh yeah of course, every computer is either $50 worth of gold or it's worth $500 on ebay as wow/old/rare lol.
overpriced eBay to the rescue!
Same
