Heheh, I finally got my excitement this past weekend. Someone up the road had been gifted an eMachines Tower running Windows Vista Home. I'll say it was a year old. Anyhow, they threw it on the curb for the trashman, and when I asked why, the man said, "That thing's junk!" So I took it home and played around with it for a while, until I got tired of all of the Security Messages. (A message for a Solitare Game?!) I turned it off, and, well, put it this way, it failed it's piloting test

. I pulled the hard drive, DVD Burner, and AGP card (the onboard NIC and the three PCI slots were dead), and out the window into the side yard it went. Made my weekend.

PS: It is now resting, in pieces, in the Tullytown Landfill.
