Comment on It's been a while since I was fired from my job, so here's a picture of Windows updating at the wrong time

Not cable management but I used to provide PCs for nonprofits at no charge and took hardware donations to keep it going. I received this donation, and it it was fully functional before I stripped it for parts:Image

Fairly normal for any system in my area that isn’t serviced regularly every 2 to 3 years.

    Ah, didn’t see the rust. That doesn’t happen here. We are dry as a bone.

Smoker? I’ve seen some truly disgusting computers that came from houses where people smoked. Even when they still worked usually the best thing was to just strip them for parts because you’ll never get rid of the smell.

  I have received some disgusting PCs from smoker houses, but this one came from a commercial paint shop. Mostly cars etc.
