Athlon XP-m 2400+ (Barton) 1GB PC2700/PC3200 DDR RAM PCChips M848LU (NF2) ATI 9500 128MB (clocks to 400 MHz core nicely) Antec True Power 300 Watt Antec Super Mini Tower (grey) Dell 2005FPW Cambridge Soundworks Model Twelve / Phillips ear-buds M$ multimedia keyboard and Intellimouse explorer 4.0 80GB Segate 7200.7 and 120GB Western Digital (something) Some sort of DVD+/-RW DL (8x)
Mine isn't the fastest setup, but I'm really, really happy with it. Insanely happy with it. Seriously, I'm really happy with it. Outstandingly. Did I mention my computer f**king rules? Okay okay... here it is. :D
The below is my \"use and abuse\" machine. It has had various flavors of Linux and Windows installed on it, and has even had the honor of BeOS (which isn't much of an honor, the OS sucks). It has had Windows Vista and Mac OS X, and it's the machine I use to test stuff on.
It cost me $111 to build after two friends of mine (brothers) handed me a Compaq MS-6541 motherboard and a 1.8 GHz Celeron and said, \"If you can fix it, you can have it.\" Turns out the problem wasn't either the board or the processor, but rather a CD-ROM drive that had seen better days. I offered it back, but they said it was fine, so I bought a 2.4 GHz Pentium 4 for $81 and a case off of one of my friends for another $30.
Western Digital WD400 40 GB, 2 MB Cache, 7200 RPM, EIDE
KHypermedia 4x DVD+/-RW
Creative SoundBlaster Live! (Needs upgrading :D)
My laptop is nice (it works :D) it just needs... to be replaced. Since, for the time being, I'm stuck with this 'til I get my fingers on a Dell Inspiron E1705, I'll say this -- For a six-year old laptop, I'm impressed. The thing runs like a champ, and it has convinced me to look at Compaq in a much different light.
