This thing is pretty neat. As a sucker for mid-late 2000s in general (especially tech) seeing an original, OEM pc in a good shape like this just isn't something id wanna pass up on. The most surprising thing? This GTX 260 that came in it is literally brand new condition wise. Im certain im the first person to pull it out of the slot. Installing Vista home premium on it as we speak.

The psu and the hdd are not original since it came without one but the crucial parts are. A cool find no?
