there was a point in time, between the mid 90s to the mid-00s, in the U.S., where you could be a very manipulative piece of shit, wthout knowing anything, except how to get these crap computers running again.

actually they probably run some old ass linux fine even now. i hate to see the internals trashed for a junkyard - that trashed computer could be running the junkyard.

that said, i went looking for parts for my car on the internet, at local junkyards. i think they are running the old-ass computers.
