HP Pavilion 753n (2002): An example of the capacitor plauge's legacy.

(22 October 2025) If you've been sticking around lately, you've likely seen several of my videos about Socket T desktops: the Lenovo ThinkCentre M58 and Dell Inspiron 530, respectively. This time, though, it's a Socket 478 P4 I thought was Socket 423. And it also doesn't work. Brilliant. T_T
