Step back into the original world of Windows XP! The Presario S4000 series was one of Compaq's most successful consumer lines, designed to be reliable, easy to upgrade, and perfectly compatible with the explosion of early-2000s software. This unit survives as a fully functional, "plug-and-play" station. From the iconic "Luna" blue taskbar to the classic desktop sounds, this machine provides the definitive environment for the era that defined the modern PC.
This is a fully bootable station (as pictured) ready for your retro gaming lab!
Driven by the Intel Celeron @ 2.40GHz, this machine offers steady, reliable performance for XP-era applications. While these originally shipped with much less memory, this unit has been upgraded to 1GB of RAM—providing significant overhead for a snappy interface and lightning-fast performance in legendary titles like The Sims, RollerCoaster Tycoon 2, and Age of Empires II.
