Yes, AFAIR there where no real problems but the system is mostly
running Windows so it hasn't been tested much.

The Broadcom NIC only works when being forced to 100mbit, but that
might be something with the switch and/or cable.

I don't remember if our Optiplex has exactly those item, but I do
remember it has an onboard Intel graphs adaptor and a SATA disk, of
some sort.
