After checking it out I can say 1 thing for certain. The CD-player of the thing is BUSTED UP !... I can use it to boot the thing, but I can not play any games without hearing it go &quot;bzzp, respool, bzzp, respool, bzzp, respool&quot; ... around 14 times per minute... I waited like 5 minutes... Know anything I can do with it now ? I mean, I can not load a buffer overflow from a game ( at least I think ) so linux-stackoverflowing is out... not that I ever done THAT but... hot-swap an IDE hard disk sounds ever riskier ( and I never did that either ) ... Great idea's come to me
