Legendary performance
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.All these kids and their fancy whiz bang 4090’s and Core i9 processors would be blown away by the power of this beastly machine. With the parallel port you can hook up your old dot matrix printer and print the latest ASCII art.

Bestbuy wont provide a restock date.
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This isn't a reflection of the product, but rather Bestbuys unwillingness to let the people know when they will get more in stock. Feels like they're gatekeeping if you ask me.
