sonys are bad. and they don;t have ddr ram as of right now i think. Plus if something goes wrong with a part you have to get it directly from sony not any computer store. Get a Mircon. Can't go wrong with them.

[Miscue]

Blah. Build it yourself. Name brand computers suck.

[Jonno06]

I have a 19" Maxtech moniter

[Havoc_online]

sadly, I didnt know enough when I bought the computer to actually build one, after I bought it, I built one for Capo at a fraction of the cost and it is a monster compared to mine, I've been thinking about selling this one and building one for myself down to a case from scratch

AMD XP 1700 (overclocked just a tad)
512 ddr ram

[ThePatriot]

I didnt build mine, however i picked all the parts out and had them build it for me....it would have saved me 40 bucks to build it myself, but there was a 5% discount if they put it together so i took them building it.

AMD Athlon 1900+(1.61 ghz)
Gigabyte POS Mobo
Dell 17" monitor(from old comp)

Miscue, I dig your taste in Motherboards. I've got the same one (Rock's) I love the Raid control. My setup is pretty much the same except for a 1.2ghz. I also have a plextor 12x10x32x "Crack master" cd writer.

Only the best makes it into this machine.

Hmmmm

(walking down into the dungeon)

Gray Atari Box screwed onto a turned over yellow milk crate. In the crate are 3 mice running on tread mills powering the massive processor thing or something or other that looks like an old washing machine motor. Bailing twine tied tight to something sticking out of the Atari Box and running out to the telephone pole, and another one going over to the back of an old Ham Radio. The keyboard is a modified scientific calculator. And the monitor/sound system is an old black and white TV that works just fine if you pound on the top of it every couple minutes or so to keep it from rolling.

There are some other things here too, but the dust on them make it hard to see what they are. ;)

Ever notice how these two hobbies (paintball and computers) have a sort of see-saw relationship.

They are both money hogs, and if you spend money on one - inevitably money spent on the other decreases. Just like a see-saw going up and down.

Man!!! Why do I have to have such expensive hobbies?


And to the man running FreeBSD - that IS the way to go!
