Hey paxx, I don't think your PC is bad. I remember back in 1998 when it came out on the market. Man was that fast too. I would have wet my pants if I was near a system like that back then.

P3/500...with, until a little while ago, 4 physical harddrives...16g, 10g, 36g, and a 160g.
Now, the 36g went 'walkies' and I've lost quite a lot of stuff...so any minute now it may wear a bucket of water...at which time it'll be steam-driven and fade to black...
