We have a problem at work with a load of old Dell P2 & P3's (circa 1997-9) which have got between 6 and 10GB hard drives. Unfortanately these PCs are mission critical for the news staff and they keep going wrong. The PCs are going to be replaced in the next couple of months with nice new PCs but keeping these things going is troublesome. If it wasn't for the specific audio cards (ISA Bus APT-X audio cards) and the software they use to run them (called Brian) my job would be a whole lot easier.
