Your mention of Pentium 4 caused me to think of the original Pentium that
couldn't add 2 plus 2.

So You were on the bleeding edge getting a XP box.
Shortly before AIO Printers/Scanners were sold I REALLY WANTED a Scanner.
I paid a few cents less than one kilobuck (USD) for a 14 inch HP scanner and
enjoyed it 1 or 2 years until I visited a friend and saw their AIO that they
paid <>$300.00(USD) for.
Now AIO's are much cheaper.
