Had a HP 2133.  Loved it.  Ran XP like  a dream.  was my portable media player  , retro games emulator, and net machine.  Till the motherboard died 3 months in.  And 4 weeks later.  Then I sold it.

Actually I don't see much of a future for desktop PC's, other than for tinkerers or servers.  PC gaming seems to be less and less popular-consoles are cheaper and easier to maintain, the HTPC hasn't really become standard in living rooms where PVR's are getting a foot hold, and laptop are getting more and more powerful.
