Post subject: Brag or complain about your computer.
|
|
|
|
If you're looking at this website then it's probably on a computer (unless you have WebTV). This thread is for all of you who like to brag and/or complain about your computer.
I'll go first:
Intel PentiumIII CPU @ 1133MHz (not over-clocked)
512MB PC133 RAM
ATI Radeon 7500 video card
Sound Blaster Audigy Gamer sound card
Iomega BUZ video capture card
Hard drive 1 (60GB) Windows ME
Hard drive 2 (80GB) Windows XP Pro
Why two hard drives? Uncompressed video takes about 1GB for every 10 minutes.
It's not the fastest computer out there, but as long as it runs my games I'm happy.
I made it through one whole month without having to re-install Windows.
WOOHOO!

I looked at all the threads to make sure I wasn't making a duplicate one. Why don't you put me in my place and tell me where this computer thread is? |

once again Ism comes to the aid of another fallen comrade.
True there is a computer page, but his page is different, as started in to topic line the other one was Computer FAQ, his on teh other hand is Brag/Complain.
FAQ does not equal Brag/Complain
I say he has made his stand, and so have i.
Reason win over logic

Every kid at my school was issued a laptop at the start of school. It has 10 gigs of memory, wireless internet via airport, but some things are blocked by the school filter and I can only connect when I'm at school.
My home computer has broadband internet. Besides that it s*cks. _________________ "I hope you haven't become too attached to your head, because in about two seconds it will be festively decorating that back wall." |

I have a Pentium 4 1.7 Ghz w/WinXP Home, 512 Megs of RAM, an NVidia card with 32 Megs of RAM (come Christmas time, this will be a GeForce 4 Titanium ) 80 gig hard drive, it has 40 gigs used, but what's the use of having a big hard drive if you can't use it?
My "other" computer as I like to call it, has a 400 Mhz PII with 196 MB of RAM and a 12 Gig hard drive with about 2 gigs left. Oh yeah and some whacked-out video card that can't do jack crap. I think it's an old old ATI Rage Pro with 4 megs of RAM. |

Thank you IsmHawk. You have restored my faith that not everyone on this MB is out to get me.

As for a school that has enough $$$ to get every student a laptop, you must be in one of those fancy states that isn't 48th out of 50 in public school funding. That is if you are even attending a public school... |

It is a public school, and it is only the county not the state. _________________ "I hope you haven't become too attached to your head, because in about two seconds it will be festively decorating that back wall." |

IsmHawk shall soon be converted to us snooty french type soon enough when he obtains DSL. I can understand that you wanted a thread that you could brag about your uber computer, but if your going to complain about how bad a PC is, post it in the Computer FAQ. The other techies and I on this board will try and help you out.
And anyways, no one has anything on this PC!
With a: PS2, Xbox, Gamecube, NES, Atari 2600, and still functioning as a working PC.
you have been owned.
Second of all
