Nearly 2 years old. E-machines E4026: 2.93Ghz Pentium 4, 1.25GB RAM, 80 GB hard drive (which is nowhere near full) with Windows XP. It suits my needs more than enough, just needed more RAM, which I got. My mates say it is a bit "old hat", but it depends on what you use it for. If you use it for internet, downloading, office work and other medium duties, it is perfect. If you are after replacing yours, don't get drawn in to thinking you have to get the latest "Quad-core" machines for today's applications. Just think what you'll use it for and get the PC to match. You'll save money. Mine will be OK for years to come, or until it demises. When I eventually do replace mine, it will be for a dual-core processor PC, but only because they will be the minimum standard sold in the future.

I have a newer one and a REALLY OLD one. The old one was manufactured in 1999. It's an HP Vectra VL. It has a 550Mhz Pentium III, 128Mbs of RAM, and a 12 gig HDD. I didn't get rid of it when I got a new one because, hey, it works. HP knows how to make a computer that lasts.
I use the old one more often than the new one because my girlfriend never gets off the new one.
