OT: Does anyone remember 'E-Machine' computers, $299 desktops what a POS

I still have one working almost continuously since 2003/2004. Around 2012/2013 I tried to order replacement parts (mechanical,cracked plastic) and I found out that many places are still using it. Gateway may be still providing support for them.

Runs Bitcoin & Litecoin just fine, although mine was way more expensive.

I love E-machines, and their predecessor, Packard-bell.

They were cheap, nasty pieces of slap-dash assembly that usually got thrown in the dumpster by about the end of six months, wherein I retrieved them and used the components for various frankenstein builds Cheesy

Still have several of them lying about, all working (when i want them to). Out of the box they were essentially worthless. Out of the dumpster? Priceless!
