Well, I've avoided this topic long enough I think...

 

My Other PC:

CPU:.............................. Pentium 4 1.7GHz

Motherboard:................ Intel D845WN

Memory:....................... 1024MB (1GB) PC100

Video Card:................... ATI All-In-Wonder AGP 8X

Hard Drive:................... 80GB Western Digital IDE

Hard Drive:................... 40GB Western Digital IDE

OS:................................ Windows XP Home / Fedora Core 6

Optical Drive:................ Sony CD-W/DVD±RW

Network Interface:....... LinkSys 10/100 PCI Network Card

 

My Current PC:

CPU:.............................. Intel Pentium 4 641 Cedar Mill 3.2GHz LGA 775 Single-Core Processor

Motherboard:................ Intel DG965WH (LGA775 Socket)

Memory:....................... 2048MB (2GB) DDR2 800 (PC2 6400)

Video Card:................... Built In

Hard Drive:................... 160GB Western Digital sATA

OS:................................ Windows XP Home

Optical Drive:................ Sony CD-W/DVD±RW

Network Interface:....... Built In - Intel Pro 10/100/1000 Network Interface

 

My motherboard allows for plenty of upgrading...

I have room for another 4GB of memory but 2GB DDR2 memory modules are hard to find and expensive so I am going to upgrade to a total of 4 GB soon (1GB+1GB)+(1GB+1GB) = 4 GB

I can put an Intel Core 2 Duo or Core 2 Quad processor in the board which would boost my system even more.

 

Looking to add hard drives soon as well. At least 1 more 160 GB drive to create a mirrored RAID. I'm considering doing 3 more 160 GB drives and arranging them in a RAID 0+1 which would mirror and stripe the disks. (The computer would see 1 320GB hard drive which would have a real-time clone from the mirror). This provides a very large storage capacity, quicker read times and best of all data protection.

 

Both of my systems share a ViewSonic VA721 17" flat panel monitor, Microsoft thumb controlled trackball, and Microsoft keyboard on a KVM switch.

I would like to add a second video controller to my current system along with a second flat panel monitor. Having dual or triple screens would really increase my productivity when writing scripts.

 

I'm pretty happy with my current system except for all of the extras I mentioned.

Well, the new PC's arrived!

An early birthday present, admittedly, but it's not overly shabby. In effect, it's one of these, with a nice flatscreen monitor (1440x900) and decent speakers. All in all, it makes a nice change from my old laptop, although I do miss it's little quirky fan noise...

Although I wouldn't mind getting that sweet LED keyboard the $1500 price tag is a bit to much, although I don't even know what the hell I was thinking when I order that mouse EEEW, I be replacing that with my USB wireless mouse, but I guess I can give it a trial run but the mouse was ugly back then and still is ugly right now.

Does somebody remember the first posts in this topic ? People said that this topic is useless, no interest, mods were asked to remove it. And now this topic is 15 pages long, proving that a lot of people want to express themselves here.Also, I think here we should not post about our professional computers, only concerning family computers. Else I would also post about my 64-cpu's Power5 system which 200 gig's memory and 140 terabytes disks.

Really $298 ? Or did you have to paid a small extra amount for Windows Vista and for the burning software ?
