Yeah, I have memories of thousands of Dell GX620s, too.  But the part
that inspires an urge for bad caps is the words "small factor."  That
brings up memories of the Gateway Profile 5 and Profile 5.5, which I
begged to be allowed to launch on a trebuchet at their end of life.  I
was denied because the small factor/all in ones are hard to replace
parts on, and they needed to hoard carcasses for the ones that hadn't
been replaced yet.

Sorry, man.  Those small factors are kind of brittle.
