Pretty old machine that still works, from about 2000/2001 I believe. Pentium III CPU, 256MB RAM. Might use it as a kind of retro gaming DOS machine or something, it even has a Maestro sound chip which is quite suited for that. Funny thing is I remember from my school years is it used to overheat quite easily, casually hanging around in 90+ degrees celsius temps. CPU fan never seemed to work and as a kid I didn't think much of it and eventually upgraded anyway. Now I've found _why_ it never worked. Some silly person, before I got it, had obviously taken it apart to clean it and accidentally put one of the longer screws in near the CPU fan... and it wedged into the fan blades 🤣"
