Hi,

The trouble is, unless you still have a vintage machine, it's
ridiculously hard to find a good one these days, at least if you want
one where the mainboard hasn't been half-eaten by a leaking battery.
And even then, at 20 years of age they are often prone to hardware
conking out.

This is the exact reason why I think these boxes are so interesting - you get modern "old" hardware that is not prone to breakage.

I own a Pentium 3 machine, so in theory I should be covered, but this machine is acting up a bit (e.g. it takes multiple attempts to get powered on even with a new PSU) - old hardware doesn't get any healthier over the years.

This is a great way to preserve _some_ real hardware.
