I know this is a computer enthusiast site with enthusiast forum members, but it can still go both ways, with either latest computer\specs or the oldest.

Although i have a nice modern computer, i usually don't get rid of any machine that still can do something for me, so my question is:

What is the oldest computer you still have in service?


As for me i still have 14 years laptop with a Pentium III 500Mhz with 384mb sdram and Windows XP connected to my NAS taking care of all the really big downloads such as torrentz and other stuff.

So what would your oldest machine in use be?
 
Operating System: Windows XP Professional 32-bit SP3
CPU: Intel Pentium D 930 Presler 65nm Technology
RAM: 3.00GB Dual-Channel DDR2 @ 266MHz (4-4-4-12)
Motherboard: ASUSTek Computer INC. EMERY (Socket775)
Graphics: Plug and Play Monitor (1280x1024@75Hz) 64MB NVIDIA GeForce 7300 LE (ASUStek Computer Inc)
Hard Drives: 466GB Western Digital WDC WD5000AAKS-00YGA0 (SATA) 932GB Western Digital WDC WD10EACS-00D6B1 (SATA) Optical Drives: TSSTcorp CD/DVDW TS-H652L ASUS DVD-E616A
Audio: Creative EMU10K1 Audio Processor (WDM)
Case: NZXT Tempest 210
 
The oldest computer I still have in use contains a Barton core AMD Athlon XP 2500+, 1.5GB of RAM, an a really rare Nvidia GT430 PCI card. It uses a 15" Dell CRT, and it is mounted in my old CoolerMaster Elite 343.

Also has an 80GB Seagate IDE.

That's quite interesting? Might i ask where you got it?



I find it quite believable actually, "been there, done that".
