Intel Celeron 1.7GHz

Mercury 845 chipset.

CD Writer. I was the first in my class to get one.

The IDE controller on Mobo is blown and I am thinking of selling it off and getting a new Sempron based system. Considering that I only use it as a data storage device. I think it wont be a bad deal after all.
