Nice. I should have kept some of my old hardware; I don't think I ever saw a
384 or 486 motherboard with a failure. My Pentium 166 desktop bought in
1997 lasted long into the 2000s. 

AT keyboards must be a pain to find...

The number of new Dell and Apple systems I've seen fail at work is shocking. I
had my Mac tech tell me that seeing a Mac logic board fail before the 3-year
warranty expires is quite common.
