      It could be from today. I’ve worked at several manufacturing facilities where something like this is hooked up to a huge ancient device with a serial cable because the drivers only exist for Windows XP and the Italian business who made the machine went out of business decades ago.

      I suspect this was taken in the early 2000s, though, since the fan isn’t caked in an inch of dust and grime yet.

        Yeah, this is a very clean PC picture, like new (though one can absolutely still get new mobo’s with legacy I/O ports) so probably not a modern build, just an older pic.
