Yes.  It's the only computer I've owned with
either a hard drive or more than 8K of memory.

I've used others.

What's this "we"?
I've opened the case three times and done four things:
I've installed a new hard drive.  The old one is still working.
I've zapped the original video card, AGP.
I've blown dust.
I've had someone else install new RAM.

When I get up the nerve to open it again,
I'll blow dust and look for misplaced intestines.

In the mean time, I'll boot back to CentOS and see how long it lasts.
