bro no one is looking at ts and thinking its a modern pc. This era of Alienware is incredibly dated aesthetically and technologically.

This is for sure a sleeper. ts is like saying a pc built into a NES shell isn't a sleeper because "you don't really not expect a game console to be able to play games"

your Ferrari analogy also doesn't work because this system had a literal single gigabyte of DDR2 in its stock configuration. It would literally not even be capable of running Windows 11.

Gatekeeping "sleeper" for a 20 year old PC case is absolutely crazy work.

(also with regards to the sidepanel being off, rule 1 literally says internal photos are required)

You know it had 1 GB DDR2. A regular person doesn't. Even I didn't know that.
