Default What PC do you have?

I created this topic so that anyone can show off the capabilities of their PC. :wink:
Mine goes as following:

Intel P4 2.26 Ghz, 533 Mhz bus
Asus P4T533 motherboard
512 MB RDRAM memory
80 GB Maxtor HDD
Sony 16x/40x DVD-ROM
Teac CDRW 16x/40x/40x
Soundblaster Live Platinum, with Livedrive at the front
Creative GeForce4 4600Ti (with 128 MB ram)
SONY G220 17" monitor (CRT of course)
Intellimouse Explorer 3.0 mouse
Some normal keyboard and 3.5" floppy (lol)
Creative Cambridge Soundworks DTT2200 5.1 speakers
Zoom 56k internal modem
Microsoft Sidewinder Force Feedback Racing Wheel
Windows XP Professional

This is it... I bought it July 2002.
So what's your pc and when did you buy it?

Stone Age Garbage, know as SAG
Memory: a well trained parrot on th isnside of the tower
Processor: old monkey with paper and pencils
RAM: just that....a little tiny ram running on a treadmill
video card: M.I.A./A.W.O.L./possibly never existed
CD-ROM: powered by the treadmill the ram is running on
Modem: still have to use the switch board to get online
Monitor: an empty box with a candle and a guy typing on a typewtrier and drawing pictures on a canvas


seriously though, my parents have this POS Compaq that they got in...I think 94 or 94, if not, earlier. It makes me cry to go home. The one I use the most is an E-Machine that is suicidal or something cause it crashes on an hourly basis and runs like a motor that's had shand poured into it. I try to use the computers at the lab on the Campus as much as possible so I can acutally get thigns done :mrgreen:

Why is this so difficult? Buy the parts one by one, buy a case and do it!

I know of a lot of hacker forums where they hack passwords (and they work too!) but I cannot give them out on here... because they all have illegal/adult content...
