A Dell Pentium 4 PC, 1.4Ghz, 2x 40G HD, 256M RAM, dual boot RedHat and WinME. Former owner was an (technical) employee of a very large computing machinary corporaton. He scrubbed /home /var and numerous other things from the linux install so that it booted but pretty much had nothing of interest on it. Quite slick actually, needlessly so as he really should have zeroed the drives. It seems that he really wanted the machine to boot after it left his possession. The Windows ME install has IE caches chock full of strange windows tutorials and porn. The porn varied from vanilla to kitchen implements (yes, seriously, see . Below we show a image from the cache of great importance to those (like ourselves) who have trouble copying and pasting in Windows ME.
We still have trouble copying and pasting in Windows anything but at least we have now seen the tutorial! No media on machine, no P2P, no digital pics. Sad.
