Do you happen to remember what the CPU/memory/HD specs were?

I "rescued" an "e-Machine" from curbside not too long ago. It was badly 
virus-infected, (poor thing) which may be why the owner discarded it. Format the 
HD, reinstall Winders, grab the drivers, and away it went! 500Mhz Celery. It sat 
on my shelf for a while, until my Dad's computer conked out. (MoBo or CPU 
failure) so I just transferred the files from his old HD to it. Now he is using 
it, and is quite happy with it.

A machine doesn't necessarily have to be a screamer to be useful. :)
