Guess what the PC I inherited was? Yep, a Dell GX270...

My wife is a school teacher, and she brought the dead GX270 home from
the school (with permission!) where she works because the "computer
tech" was going to throw it in the bin. I say "computer tech" because
he was really just another teacher with some limited knowledge of
computer hardware. He basically said to my wife, "If he can fix it, he
can have it".

That same PC has now had about 2 years of trouble free operation since
I replaced those caps. Computer recycling at its best.   ;-)

Cheers,
Mike
