I don’t know why but this has me rolling. Genuinely had to catch my breath.
If it’s stupid and it works…
So it isn’t stupid anymore, but they could just find a random full size pc case somewhere and use it instead of this.
It’s an OEM motherboard and it may not be a normal standard. The PSU isn’t normal either so it wouldn’t fit most *ATX cases. Plus, free is free.
I thought dells aren’t as shitty as the competition, as I have a great experience with a Latitude 5290. I guess I was wrong.
They’re not shitty. HP, Lenovo do the same shit - proprietary motherboards, limited feature sets, and minimal upgrade paths are typical of OEMs… It’s also why a lot of people recommend building to anyone.
I actually did need to take a hacksaw to a Dell case when the PSU died, because they used a proprietary form factor. It was just removing some of the back panel and it worked fine.
Why even bother putting the side cover back on? I left mine open for years.
maybe pet hair? dust? maybe they get laid?
You’re talking about three different things, right? … right?
