Gateway E-2000: This is where it all began.

If it weren't for this computer, a Gateway E-2000 from 2004, which I have already made four videos centered around, I wouldn't have gotten to where I am today. So let's do it justice with a video featuring a fair level of effort and whatnot! Anyways, the Gateway E-2000 was an SFF business desktop computer released by Gateway in the early 2000's. Originally shipping with Windows XP and as one of the lower-spec models in the E-series line, this one makes for a much better Windows 2000 system than an XP system.
So, without further ado, I hope you enjoy this video.
Yes, I know about the poor audio mixing. This was finished before I started making changes to my audio mixing.

3:44 Hey, this is not Microsoft Office XP 2001 in Windows 2000, why not dual boot Windows 2000 with Microsoft Office XP 2001 & Windows XP with Microsoft Office 2003 ?
