Now 1000 gets you 10 year old specs and a shitty os.
>>107660286Blame developers not giving a shit about performance.
>>107660312code monkeys do what they're asked. blame the corpos for sucking the soul out of everything
>>107660286I had the Athlon64 model of that machine, what a legend
>>107660286Now I wish to had kept all my old PC's
>>107660323current devs love to code "multi platform" apps in electron-like slop in their spare time so corpos are not the only issue
>>107660375my hyprland code-mokey works fine
>>107660286>decent PCFucking LOL. That model came out in 2005 and had a PresHot Celeron D inside it, which was absolute dog shit even for the time. Not to mention 512MB of RAM, which was bare minimum stuff for XP, paired with shitty Intel integrated graphics. Oh, and the motherboard had no AGP or PCIe slot, so you were absolutely fucked in terms of being able to put a decent graphics card in there.Zoomers are so fucking delusional about their childhood Windows XP shitboxes. They were FAR worse than a modern budget system.

hard to tell for sure but i think it's just money that is becoming worthless, not items going up in value
I give 4th gen i7s to my kids' friends for free so they can join our Minecraft server. I get the parts for $1.29/lb at my local Goodwill outlet.>>107660659This.
>>107660405The XP shitbox I was using in 2005 was my family's Dell from 2001 which had 128MB of RAM. 512 would have been a massive improvement for me lmao. I'm not a PC gamer, I'm a console pirate. GPU was mostly irrelevant to me.
