This info came from a friend all excited about the deal. Saving Big Bucks, dont you know. I guess for the most part from their end, general computing... some internet usage. Information and such... school, etc... I would assume gaming would be in issue...... I had some experiences years back with a banking institution, and 2nd hand p/cs...... Had issues with the BIOS for one........ went booted it kept looking for other computers,, possibly a mainframe? I was able to remove the BIOS chip, wrap with foil for several minutes, and this cleared the BIOS. But I still never had an OS for it.....
