Well, I've avoided this topic long enough I think...

My Other PC:
CPU:.............................. Pentium 4 1.7GHz
Motherboard:................ Intel D845WN
Memory:....................... 1024MB (1GB) PC100
Video Card:................... ATI All-In-Wonder AGP 8X
Hard Drive:................... 80GB Western Digital IDE
Hard Drive:................... 40GB Western Digital IDE
OS:................................ Windows XP Home / Fedora Core 6
Optical Drive:................ Sony CD-W/DVD±RW
Network Interface:....... LinkSys 10/100 PCI Network Card


My Current PC:
CPU:.............................. Intel Pentium 4 641 Cedar Mill 3.2GHz LGA 775 Single-Core Processor
Motherboard:................ Intel DG965WH (LGA775 Socket)
Memory:....................... 2048MB (2GB) DDR2 800 (PC2 6400)
Video Card:................... Built In
Hard Drive:................... 160GB Western Digital sATA
OS:................................ Windows XP Home
Optical Drive:................ Sony CD-W/DVD±RW
Network Interface:....... Built In - Intel Pro 10/100/1000 Network Interface


My motherboard allows for plenty of upgrading...
I have room for another 4GB of memory but 2GB DDR2 memory modules are hard to find and expensive so I am going to upgrade to a total of 4 GB soon (1GB+1GB)+(1GB+1GB) = 4 GB
I can put an Intel Core 2 Duo or Core 2 Quad processor in the board which would boost my system even more.

Looking to add hard drives soon as well. At least 1 more 160 GB drive to create a mirrored RAID. I'm considering doing 3 more 160 GB drives and arranging them in a RAID 0+1 which would mirror and stripe the disks. (The computer would see 1 320GB hard drive which would have a real-time clone from the mirror). This provides a very large storage capacity, quicker read times and best of all data protection.

Both of my systems share a ViewSonic VA721 17" flat panel monitor, Microsoft thumb controlled trackball, and Microsoft keyboard on a KVM switch.
I would like to add a second video controller to my current system along with a second flat panel monitor. Having dual or triple screens would really increase my productivity when writing scripts.

I'm pretty happy with my current system except for all of the extras I mentioned. laugh.gif

Well, the new PC's arrived!

An early birthday present, admittedly, but it's not overly shabby. In effect, it's one of these, with a nice flatscreen monitor (1440x900) and decent speakers. All in all, it makes a nice change from my old laptop, although I do miss it's little quirky fan noise...

Since posting my first specifications, I have bought a new laptop a few months ago. I completely forgot to post its specs here.

Name: penguin2
Model: Macbook (2,1)
Processor: Intel Core 2 Duo 2.16 GHz 4MB Cache
Mobile Platform: Napa Refresh (Centrino)
HDD: Seagate ST9120822AS 120 GB HDD 5400 RPM 8MB Cache
RAM: 1 GB (2x512MB) DDR2 SDRAM 667 MHz
Optical: SuperDrive (CD-RW/DVD-RW) 8x
GFX: Intel GMA 950 64MB VRAM (can only go up to 224MB on Windows)
WiFi: Airport Extreme (802.11 a/b/g/n)
CAM: iSight 1.3 MP
OS: MacOS X 10.4.11 Tiger

I'm going to upgrade to Leopard once I have the money and when they fix most of the serious launch kinks.

Although I wouldn't mind getting that sweet LED keyboard the $1500 price tag is a bit to much, although I don't even know what the hell I was thinking when I order that mouse EEEW, I be replacing that with my USB wireless mouse, but I guess I can give it a trial run but the mouse was ugly back then and still is ugly right now.

Does somebody remember the first posts in this topic ? People said that this topic is useless, no interest, mods were asked to remove it. And now this topic is 15 pages long, proving that a lot of people want to express themselves here.
Also, I think here we should not post about our professional computers, only concerning family computers. Else I would also post about my 64-cpu's Power5 system which 200 gig's memory and 140 terabytes disks.

Really $298 ? Or did you have to paid a small extra amount for Windows Vista and for the burning software ?

    joysticks and their buttons instead of a regular controller. the reason for this being the way that
    the buttons and joysticks on the official controller are spaced out and for certain games where you

    the ones that made history. The 386s, the 486s... I personally own a 486 (with Windows 95 though,
    it was upgraded) and an old Hewlett Packard NetServer LHII with Windows 2000. The server weighs
    about as much as I do, and takes up a ton of space, but I still keep the old behemoth around
