Wow talk about Fast and the Furius but for PC version. I am noticing people actually working on customizing their PCs now. I wonder how much those setups up there cost, just seeing that headset with mic must have been a fortune >< well for me.

falcon1 · Oct 26, 2006, 07:40 PM

Dell Inspiron 1100
2.40 GHz Pentium 4 Processor
254MB Ram
80GB Hard Drive

My desk is really dirty and messy but i've seen worse on here. Please give a moment of silence for it and show some mercy for the poor thing. haha

My setup cost just under $1300 without the monitor. It has a Core 2 Duo E6600, GeForce 7600 256MB, 250GB 16MB Cache perpendicular recording SATA HDD, 2GB DDR2 RAM, Sound Blaster Audigy ZS2, ASUS P5B Motherboard, 16X DVDRW, Card reader, Antec case, very nice PSU, Microsoft keyboard and Logitech G5 laser mouse. Not a shabby system for the price.

Very, Very Nice (you got same case as me)

sycho · Oct 28, 2006, 01:44 PM

here is my computer, as of now running Xubuntu 6.10
Athlon 1333MHz
640MB of RAM
nVidia FX 5200

40gigs of HDD

notice the Core 2 Duo MacBook Pro order hanging on the wall.

Mom's puter I half assed set up:

Printer, PC, and subwoofer orgy. Nuff said. The power supply I made is watching them

imacintel · Oct 28, 2006, 03:11 PM

I am actually sad that I owned these Machines.

My HP Pavilion A500N, now the Mobo makes aBEEP! BEEEEP!
So annoying.

And my R4225Ca. I gave it to my brother and he liked it...for a while. then for no apparent reason the screen started to get looser and looser. And he got jealous of my iMac and how everything just..works.

So he is having my iMac, while i get a MBP or something.

My past, then current (actually, the current is my Mom's Dell.)

The beige box just.. stopped working one day. (Proooooobably not the best idea to delete Nortan Anti-virus directly from the C drive, was it?

) And in case you can't tell. It's in the corner of a VERY small kitchen.

Didn't really have any pics from my last PC desktop setup but this was my Gateway tower from back in the early 90's before I settled on a single platform approach with the Mac. I used OS/2 during those days running multiple DOS VDM's and occasionally WinOS/2 (the built-in version of Windows 3.1). The thing makes the Mac Pro look like a shrimp....

At least it's highly expandable...

SkyBell · Dec 9, 2006, 04:27 PM

Pulled my 'ol Toshiba 2100T out of the closet. Windows 3.1 in all it's monochrome glory! (Still use the thing for DOS games and word processing; Toshiba used to make some darn good laptops!)

MonksMac · Dec 12, 2006, 06:40 PM

Unfortunately still using the same computer as last time I posted a pic but I got a new Monitor for a Birthday/Christmas Present. (I found the monitor too early!)

ghall · Dec 15, 2006, 06:14 PM

My Windows setup....well, check my siggy.

I had a Dell Inspiron 8100 at one point as well. That was like 4 years ago, and it sucked.

Great monitor. I have one as well and I have it hooked up to both my PC and my MacBook. It looks great on both!

ryannel2003 · Dec 25, 2006, 08:36 PM

Already posted new setup in other thread, but since this is a Windows machine it deserves to be here!

Your computer would be so much cooler if you put something like Ubuntu on it.
