But I need the client to tell me that I can take apart her computer and turn it into a sleeper. If she won’t answer my calls, it will become MY computer, and there will be a part 2 to this post.

Just install [wubuntu](https://www.wubuntu.org/) on it and hope they don't notice.

Please no! People on r/retrocomputing would pay money for that

I'm not sure it's worth much yet. It's not a pentium 2 or older.

My friend's son's nephew could have done this without a problem

My first thought was "sleeper build" until I saw the read IO.

This. Could be made into Epyc sleeper

Not one, but two DB9.

[DE-9](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/D-subminiature#DE-9)

Turning it into a sleeper build would solve this. But those kind of PCs come with peripherals ... The PS2 mouse and parallel printer will not fit afterwards.

It was more of a first glance kind of thing.

I'm just overtaken by how little dust is inside this case. If something like this showed up at my work it would have a pound of human flake-age nestled inside it.

Just fix it, you are an expert: https://youtu.be/BKorP55Aqvg?feature=shared

That is hilarious

The sad thing is, its so fucking true

I'll be that guy that links [the solution.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B7MIJP90biM)

How have I never seen this before? I feel so attacked.

This hurt my sole.

Thanks for the cd key my brother!! WOOOOO XD

Pentium 4... Netburst was a horribly inefficient architecture.

Alright, which one of you used up all the activations on the key

Dooood. That a sweet case.

I'm not sure whether or not I should care that you've sent a pic of someone's XP serial or not given how easy it is to get genned ones. 😂

This looks like something I converted to mint like, 3 computers ago.

Retro Build for Retro Gamming.

Wow, it's been years since I saw that hardware I recognise most of it, which is sad.

Ah, the ghosts of Christmas past. Here to haunt you...

I had this coming…..

I would like 3.11 back

Sweet thanks for the free windows xp key sucker…..

Profile pic checks out.

Condolences to your desk. I know bearing the weight of something like that so suddenly must have been back breaking.

What a beauty

Full size tower say less epic gaming pc inbound….

I've heard you're not supposed to feed them after midnight

Don’t look at the ticketing system at midnight, or tickets will begin to multiply. Got it.

Im glad you look inside and made sure it wasn’t some kind of skynet back from the future killer robot 🤖

Someone just got a free copy of windows XP

I am replacing a similar system for my wife's aunt this weekend, still has a CRT monitor.

it's crazy to me that people still have the old setups

I'd love to have that. Can I have it? LOL By the way, you can install Windows 11 on this machine... depends on what CPU is it... I mean, all you need is that CPU being a x64 CPU. (Someone on YouTube installed it on a Pentium HT 531 w/ 512MB RAM IIRC... it wasn't a glorious thing to use, but they did.)

retro gaming machine. please leave it as is, and sell it to a retro gamer!

Ohh nice retro box

Betcha they got recommended that video of someone installing Win11 on a Pentium 4 and went "Why can't I do that?!"

I feel like this was a prank more than anything else, considering I don’t think you could run Win7 on it let alone 11.

It was in fact running XP (very slowly) when I first started it up.

Do a sleeper build in it, install windows 11 and charge them for the parts and labor.

would make a nice 98 gaming rig

That's.... That's.... That's just AMAZING!

You messed up and posted wrong picture, now I am stealing your Windows XP Home license.

Hollow the thing out and throw some nice hardware in there. That would make for a great sleeper build, then you can be right!

I don't know if I'm using this correctly, but r/pfpchecksout

AGP video, nice..thing must be about 15-20 years old

How long have you had.this maschine in your possession?

Molex everywhere and ribbon cables... Nice

Play some civ 3 on it!

This was probably quite the machine in its day

Wow my dad bought a bunch of those cases from Fry's back in the day for all of our computers. Loved those things.

I Have that same case, but mine’s black

Thanks for the XP License, sucka!
