The HP Compaq dc5750 Microtower PC is designed for the office. No nonsense, no fuss. 80 gig hard drive and Windows XP. The perfect gift for someone whose last day is today, don’t you think?

So this is it. Your last day. It’s gonna be hard now. Retirement changes everything. No more rat race, no more punching the clock, no more answering to those jerks who claim to have the people’s best interest in mind. But on the down side, you’re living off your savings now, and you can’t write anything off. Unless, you know, you start a little side business.

The HP Compaq dc5750 Microtower PC is an affordable way to make that happen. It’s not an entertainment computer, with all those bells and whistles someone of your age just won’t need. Yeah, it hard to face but let’s be honest, you’re not a kid any more. Why would you need those Napsters and Groksters and Hipsters and Visters? You know XP and you just want what you know. There’s no shame in it. You’re working for you, now.

The HP Compaq dc5750 Microtower PC has an AMD Athlon 64 3800+ 2.4 GHz and 1GB of DDR2-667/PC2-5300 RAM (2×512mb). It’s got 80GB of space, which is more than enough for your taxes and paperwork. There’s a CD-RW/DVD-Rom Combo Drive so you can burn those presentations, and a 10/100/1000Mbps Gigabit Ethernet so you can check your mail and maybe go online to keep up with your old company. You want them to do well, sure you do, but be honest, don’t you want to see them struggle just a little? Don’t worry, you’re gonna be missed.

The HP Compaq dc5750 Microtower PC is just the right amount of computer and nothing more. It’s a tool, not a lifestyle choice. It’ll let you finish your work and then go outside and have some fun, maybe travel a little. These are your golden years! Why stay chained to a new desk all over again? You’ve paid your dues! Get out there and live!

So even though you’re counting pennies and wondering if you can afford the large coffee (Don’t forget your senior discount!) you won’t have to worry about spending too much on a computer. Happy retirement, Mr. Gates. And don’t panic when you get that email for the first time. We all know you’re not really going to send us money.
