A seemingly complete e-machine 500MHz Pentium 3 that does not appear to boot. One of the very few old machines I have found that really will not boot. No worries, the memory is useful, and the hard drive was a fruitful source of amusement.
Previous owner had a small collection of mp3s seemingly acquired from semi-legal download sites. The following is telling:
wold0126<54>My Music% find . -type f | grep mp3 | sort | tail ./Unknown/Untitled - 02-17-03/13 - Track 13.mp3 ./Unknown/Untitled - 08-01-02/01 - Track 1.mp3 ./Unknown/Untitled - 08-01-02/02 - Track 2.mp3 ./Unknown/Untitled - 08-01-02/03 - Track 3.mp3 ./Unknown/Untitled - 08-01-02/04 - Track 4.mp3 ./Unknown/Untitled - 08-01-02/06 - Track 6.mp3 ./Unknown/Untitled - 08-01-02/07 - Track 7.mp3 ./Unknown/Untitled - 08-09-02/13 - Data Track.mp3 ./Unknown/Untitled - 10-14-02/02 - Data Track.mp3 ./Unknown/Untitled - 10-14-02 (1)/05 - Track 5.mp3
They are even missing their ID3 tags so I would have to listen to all that stuff to see what is there. The few I have so far got through were the likes of Tatu and Christina Agui-whatsit . Not promising. The word docs had some nice stuff in them and had more useful names. Former owner also seems to have had a proclivity for online gaming and dating services.
