FS: Dell Dimension 8100 Desktop Computer

Alex · December 13th, 2011, 12:13 AM

Specs are below. Asking price is $100. Computer is in fully working order, with both drives fully tested, wiped clean and the OS newly installed this week. Probably not fast enough for most people's primary machine anymore, but works great as a secondary machine for web browsing, general office tasks, or as a child's PC.

Pentium 4, 1.4 ghz
2 gig RAM (RAMBUS)
2 x 200GB drives (OS on C, system recovery image stored on D)
nVidia GeForce 6200 AGP 4x graphics card (256 MB, DVI output, will include DVI to VGA adapter if needed)
NEC DVD-RW drive
3.5 floppy drive
add-on 10/100/1000 network card (10/100 on motherboard)
on-board audio (no speakers)
PS/2 mouse port, PS/2 keyboard port
com port + printer port
4 USB ports + 2 USB 2.0 ports + 2 firewire ports
Windows 7 Home Premium (32-bit, Service Pack 1 + fully patched, activated)
Windows 7 Recovery Disk (can be used to repair or rebuild PC from scratch from recovery image on D: )

Will include a spare 200GB drive. (2 in the computer already, + this 3rd extra one).

Very good price with 2GB of RAMBUS. Would make a great Win9X/XP dual-booting classic game compatibility system, especially with a 3Dfx Voodoo2 card or two in there (SLI). i850 chipset had an errata limiting PCI bandwidth but I don't think it would affect those cards. The one I used back then had 128MB of RAM (included with the 1.3GHz Williamette P4) and only ever upgraded to 512MB. :P My 500MHz PIII Katmai system had 128MB when I built it at the PIII launch (overkill at the time)!

I'm always sad when I see these at Goodwill because they stupidly remove, destroy, and throw away the memory first because they think it's a liability for stored data (they throw away the HDD too). Memory IS NOT storage!

If I were local, I'd be all over it because I need a good system with serial and parallel ports.
