Your oldest PC still in use?

[Ian]

Anyone here got a really old PC still going? The slowest one I've still got is a 1.3Ghz laptop, which isn't too bad I suppose.

Are there any 486's or P120's still on the go in anyone's home here?

That must be the winner so far

oldest PC was a 286 based heap of crap, didn't use it enough to justify keeping it so got rid of it the other week

oldest one that is used regularly though is a PII 450

Oldest one I have now is just the old 2.6 P4 HP thats chugs away downstairs. Cost me the best part of £1400 with the 17" LCD back about 5 years ago.

Up until a month ago I had a really old PowerPC MAC. No idea what it was but we it was from 1994, so I make that 13 years. Thing is it had been in the shed and forgotten about for since we moved house in '98, so it was damp and obviously didn't work.

Pulled the hard drive out but it had standing water inside, so I couldn't see what I had on it all those years ago
