I have a 733 MHz Intel Pentium 3 with NVidia Riva video card. I think 256 MB RAM but I'm not real sure. It's 2 years old now and I'm very happy with it, most games run good on it (except my pop cap removed Empire Earth game but according to the readme for it it was probable') and it's very stable.

I just have to add my 2 cents regarding AMD. I have an XP1500 and in general the thing rocks, except for the chip overheating, which I gather is a terrible problem with AMD copared to Intel. We have extremely hot weather in my country which makes it worse. LOL...even at night in summer I have to open the box and blow a huge external fan over the computer to cool the thing down...

Still, compared to what the Intel rubbish costs, I am glad I bought one

Mac OS 8.6. What else can I say?

Gammit · 10-29-2002, 08:53 PM

I just built mine:

"Alatar" (it's name)
AMD 1.67 GHz (Athlon XP 2000+)
1 GB of 333 MHz RAM (mwa, haha.... I can have 198,349,352 simulataneously-running
applications without any go-between delay.
128 MB ATI 9700 Radeon Pro video card (disgustingly fast) w/ 19" flat monitor
Creative Labs Audigy Gamer sound card
7200 RPM 8 MB chache hard drive (super fast game loads)

I'm so proud, it's like my "child" (can't you tell?). Granted, it'll be a dinosaur in no time, but that's the name of the game!

Mine is Beige coloured, has a CD drive, another slot for something else and a bunch of cords coming out the back. It has an on/off button and a green light and a orange light. My monitor is the same colour but my speakers are blue. [img]smile.gif[/img]

I have a Mac G4 that screams. Dual 1 gig processors and running OS X. (10.2 Jaguar to be precise.) Have a 22" cinema display plasma monitor.

Used to be a PC person, but things run better on the Mac. Ah well.

I have just bought this, and I'm running it right now:

It's a laptop/palmtop hybrid, but it fits in your pocket and has all the standard Windows applications. It has a 131mhz processor, 32mb ram, a 16-bit screen and a nearly full-sized keyboard. It's awesome
