It's not too old. About 3 years or more. But I went through it with my dad and managed to scrap some parts out. I was able to get a sound card, networking card, and a DVD Drive from the batch. The DVD Drive is 3 years old and is a 20X. The network card is a Wireless G for right now. And the sound card... I don't know what it is yet. But it's not too old. I managed to save me about $80 right there. Of course I'll upgrade these parts in the future. Not too shabby, eh?
