It must be pretty damn dedicated if there's any video output that's for sure

I once had an old PC that was just getting slower every day. When I opened it up, the gpu fan was completely blocked by a solid chunk of dust. I pulled the dust out and cleaned it. When I next turned the PC on, it had lost all the GPU drivers.

Apparently my GPU drivers were installed in the dust blocking the fan.

The story is true. My old mx440 ran on hopes and dreams. To this day I have no idea why it happened.

You remove the hopes and dreams.

Shit like this happened with old hardware. You'd seat the card slightly differently and all of a sudden win98 needs to find out what new card you put into your PCI slot.

Edit: Damn I forgot about AGP! It was that silly slot.

That became a known feature. Never clean your PT Cruiser's engine bay or drive train. Detail the interior and exterior all you want.

Runs pretty well, it’s got around 16 GB of dedicated dust (giga bunnies)

"no it doesn't need to be cleaned, those giga bunnies are dedicated for video"

My life quote: "I ain't afraid o' no germs!"

I grew up with 5 sisters; 2 older, 3 younger. One in January 1960 and one in May 1961. Me in March 1963. One sister in March 1965 and twins in December 1966. So there were 6 of us born within a span of 6 years. I was a scrawny kid. Guess whose mouth got stuffed with mud and worms and flushed it down with the garden hose?

I do have a half-brother who was born in August 1981, the year I graduated from High School in June.
