amd turion 64 bit
ati graphics card,
100 gb drive
512 mb RAM
s video out
wireless networking built in,
quickplay (you can run a cd or dvd without having to boot up windows)

I love this thing and only thing it dont have but can live with is the round ps2 ports for external mice or keyboards.

for this it was $399 USD at circuit city

Ok, so I just came into this thread to brag But still, I did read the first two and last two pages, probably read the rest later

My main machine:
-AMD64 3000+
-2gig ram
-NVidia GeForce 5200FX 128mb (POS, replacing it soon hopefully)
-120gig IDE hard drive, Windows XP, gaming and video editing only
-160gig SATA hard drive, Arch Linux, everything else
-80" projection screen
-TV tuner card

My main laptop:
-AMD64 3600+
-1gig ram
-NVidia Go 64mb
-100gig HD, Arch Linux
-15.4" widescreen (wish it was 12")

My gateway:
-Dell 500mhz old crappy
-256mb ram
-3gig HD, Arch Linux
-Primary connection - Telus ADSL modem
-Secondary connectoin - Telus backup Dial-Up
-Main LAN connection - To 24-port layer 3 backbone switch, Keystone 24G
-Secondary LAN connection - To wireless AP, WRT54G running OpenWRT with 1gig SD card
-Controller connection - Connections to switch and wireless AP via VLANs on switch, used for SSH/Telnet into networking devices

My PDA:
-Zaurus 3100
-4gig internal HD
-1gig SD card
-Soon to have wireless and bluetooth cards
-Great for listening to music in the van or on a job site

All in all, they serve me well. Hopefully I'll eventually get distcc running across the my desktop and laptop and a newer gateway running an AMD64 processor so I can compile gentoo across all three. THen my hope is to have matching hard drives in all three and have them all sync up whenever I plug them into the network. But thats down the road...

Fooker

i have a pda also i used to use it for music and videos but the batteries drained to fast and i ran out of room on my 1 gig memory card. so i use it to store pictures and stories now.
and i got a media player with 3" screen 20 gig internal hd. it plays music nonstop for 12 hours and videos and movies in perfect quality when in .avi format no skiping no choppyness no rediculusly small video picture and it can play 3 or 5 hours of video.
it's only real flaw is that .wmvs don't play as well and have horrible sound guality but that's it. it can also store pics and tv files whatever those are.

what it's a site to talk about cool compy like stuff and i can brag if i want everyone else is.
xemnas: no s**t they are.
*glares*

Compaq

IBM Thinkpad A21e
Dell Inspirion 5100
NEC Versa M400

All laptops.

CPU: Athlon XP 2700+. 2.17ghz, overclocked to 2.38ghz with a little help from a bigass Cu+Al heatsink.

Memory: 1gig PC3200

HD: 160gb SATA (primary), 80gb & 40gb UDMA100 (old ones not worth disconnecting)

Mobo: Asus A7V8X-X - probably my last ASUS product for the forseeable future. They used to be expensive, but very good. Now they're still expensive, but provide no reasons to justify the extra cost.

OS: Linux (Ubuntu Dapper), which also runs Windows XP SP2 via VMWare for my few essential Windows-only apps.

Video: nVidia 6600GT AGP, OC'd with an aftermarket Zalman cooler.

Monitor: 17" Samsung LCD.

I currently have an Athlon 64 x2 3800+ on the way, as well as an AsRock Socket 939 motherboard. The motherboard is unique because it has AGP AND 16x PCIe (both running at full speed), plus it has a provision for an expansion card which contains an AM2 socket and DDR2 slots. I might be able to actually upgrade my CPU/memory WITHOUT a getting a new motherboard this time! Then again, I thought the same thing every time I've ever purchased a new motherboard in the past, and it never worked out that way.

Desktop:
AMD Athlon 64 3200+
ASUS K8V SE Deluxe Motherboard
768MB PC3200 RAM
128MB GeForce 6800
Audigy
300GB WesternDigital SATA drive & 120GB WesternDigital Caviar SE (IDE) drive
TDK 8x DVD-R & DVD+R burner

Laptop:

2-year old generic white box. Nothing special now, but back in the day…

CD-ROM Drive
SONY DVD-ROM DDU 1613
Intel® 536EP Slodem

Computer #1: Mac Mini Core Duo
Intel Core Duo 1.67 GHz
1 GB 667 MHz RAM
667 MHz Frontside Bus

i have a del computer with broadband

My computer has changed quite a lot since I last posted in this thread so I will post again

AMD Athlon 64 3000+ overclocked to 2.5ghz @1.6v - runs a bit hot
1.25gb of pc3200ram 2.0-3-3-5 2T
Geforce 256mb 6800GS flashed to GT 412mhz gpu 1.13ghz vram agp bus @ 87mhz
Gigabyte GA k8ns mobo
Sound Blaster Live oem sound card
80GB 7200rpm Seagate HDD
40GB 7200rpm Seagate HDD
450W PSU
CD and DVD rom Drives

XP Home SP2

This is the second system I have built because the old ones mobo died from too much overclocking

i have 3 systems

My main system (was pretty cutting edge a few years ago when I built it):
2 X 19" samsung TFT panels (dual-head)
2 X 200GB HD (400GB)
2 X 160GB HD (320GB)
1024MB PC3200 RAM
ATI 9800Pro 128MB
P4 2.8GHz
16X DVD Burner
52X CD Burner

Spare System (linked to monitor 2 using KVM switch)
2 X 40GB HD (80)
512MB PC3200 RAM (@533)
ATI 9800Pro 128MB
Athlon 2800+(2Ghz)
4X DVD Burner

Laptop
15.4" widescreen tft
PentiumM 1.7GHz
512MB RAM
60GB HD
GeForce 5200Go 64MB
8X DVD bruner

I've built a few systems now for friends and family. If anyone is considering a dual-head set up, I'd recommend saving up for a bigger single monitor. The divide down the middle sucks. I have a flatmate with a 24" ftf and its a monster.

My Compaq is now nonfunctional due to a bad Mobo/Graphics chipset.

My current sytem is a Toshiba Sattelite Notebook.

The specs are as follows:

100 GB HDD
1 GB RAM
15.4 TFT Display
Intel Centrino Duo CPU @ 1.7Ghz
WinXP Home (to be wiped out and replaced with a full install of XP Pro, when Cash permits)
