February 28, 200818 yr After reading through this thread, I was quite enjoying reading up on what sort of spec people run on their machine. Although that thread got a bit side tracked for a moment, I think it would be good to see what everyone has. :-) I'll start with mine: Processor: Intel Pentium Dual CPU E2180 @ 2.8GHz (2 CPUs) Memory: 4096 MB RAM Graphics: Nvidia 8800GTX 768MB GDDR3 (Got this for an absolute BARGAIN from eBay :-)) HDD: 3 x 500GB WD Sata, 1 x 320GB WD Sata, 1 x 200GB WD IDE Unsure of where to find your specs? Click Start Click Run Type in "dxdiag" (without the quotes) There are your specs
February 28, 200818 yr unless you run Mac or *nix My specs are: Processor:: AMD 64 X2 4200+ ( 2 x 2.1 GHz ) Memory: 2048 MB RAM ( 1820 MB usable ) Graphics: on-board GeForce 6 128MB HDD: 1 x 160 GB SATA OS: incase I haven't mentioned it enough ... Ubuntu 7.10 Xander : why do you need 2 TB of HDD space???
February 28, 200818 yr Author Xander : why do you need 2 TB of HDD space??? It's to house the mass amount of Movies & Music I have... :-) In honesty, I still have 229GB free... but hey!
February 28, 200818 yr Author I believe that you paid for all those movies and music .. honestly - i do I paid for a small percent of them... yes
February 28, 200818 yr Model: Macbook Black OS: OS X Leopard 10.5.2 Processor: Intel Core 2 Duo 2ghz Memory: 3GB RAM Graphics: GMA 950 Built-in HDD: 120gb Internal drive Apple ftw!
February 28, 200818 yr Author zomg I'm telling Sony BMG!!! oh, sh*t! Model: Macbook BlackOS: OS X Leopard 10.5.2 Processor: Intel Core 2 Duo 2ghz Memory: 3GB RAM Graphics: GMA 950 Built-in HDD: 120gb Internal drive Apple ftw! I've been looking at buying that! Mind telling me how much you paid for it? (roughly)
February 28, 200818 yr Might as well join in.... Processor:: Intel Q6600 Quad Core ( 4 x 2.4 GHz ) Memory: 2 GB Graphics: Nvidia 8800GTS 640MB HDD: 1 x 500GB + 1 x 200GB OS: Windows XP Also have a Macbook pro
February 28, 200818 yr £850 - I got a discount, plus £60 for the extra memory. The newer (more powerful) black ones are £950. If you are looking to do anything that requires alot of power, running Windows on the mac, etc.. then my advice is to save up for a Macbook Pro (the silver ones) - I wish I did that!
February 28, 200818 yr hahaha! ...I must be the owner of the oldest, nastiest machine on the boards! Pentium III 750MHz 512Mb Ram Graphics? ROFL! I'm guessing it's Rage 128 RF/SG AGP? HDD 25Mb + 40Mb OS Ubuntu 6.06 (the only worthwhile piece of kit in my arsenal - what does it say about me that it's the only bit that costs nowt!?) What's my prize?
February 28, 200818 yr Processor: Intel x86 Family 15 Model 1 Stepping 2, ~1694MHz Memory: 256MB RAM Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce 2 MX (Compaq) HDD: 18.6GB PITY ME! My sister has stolen my laptop and I'm using the PC... Now you see why I'm so excited about there being a new Mac Store nearer my house. I can't wait till I have some money and can buy a Mac instead of this PC!
February 28, 200818 yr My sister has stolen my laptop and I'm using the PC... Now you see why I'm so excited about there being a new Mac Store nearer my house. I can't wait till I have some money and can buy a Mac instead of this PC! Ooo, what mac you thinking of buying? It's always fun walking into the local Apple store and playing on the iPhones and iMacs
February 28, 200818 yr I don't like iPhones. I would quite like an iMac, because they look sexy... It's all about the aesthetics for me. I'm shallow like that. I'm open to suggestions though!
February 28, 200818 yr I say go for it! The new iMacs are amazing; my sister has one, as well as my good friend Jaysgirl (she is on the forum somewhere). One of the main reasons I have a mac is because of the aesthetics, not just of the computer, but even OS X is sexy!
February 28, 200818 yr Processor: AMD Athlon 64 Processor 3700+, MMX, 3DNow, ~2.4GHz Memory: 1536MB RAM Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce 6800 GT (Gainward Golden Sample) HDD: 300GB + 200GB SATA Plus my awesome PURPLE custom paint-job: Shame she's so old now (nearly 4 years), she was awesome when I first got her, and is something like a grandmother now, slowly losing her faculties!!! - Eris
February 28, 200818 yr I'm a sucker for pretty stuff... like Sarah Shahi, and iMacs. Who is Sarah Shahi???
February 28, 200818 yr Author Eris, am I right in thinking this originally came as a completely silver case? I think my brother used to have the same one... Looks so much better in purple though!!
February 28, 200818 yr Thanks Rachael Xander, Yeah it was a boring silver-metal iCute case (minus bubble lights). Needless to say me = geek, but importantly me = girl-geek! Hence the purple...
February 28, 200818 yr Author Needless to say me = geek, but importantly me = girl-geek! Hence the purple... Haha, I like it! My misses is trying to persuade my to spray my case a dark(ish) pink, but I think I'll pass!! It's currently black and red, with a perspex side and red cold cathode tubes x 4. And anyway, I don't think I have the patience or the artistic nature to be spraying anything, let alone my beloved case!
February 29, 200818 yr Computer 1 : 24" iMac Core Two Duo Intel Processor, 2gigs of ram, 250gig hard drive - Mac OSX 10.5 Leopard Computer 1b : 24" iMac Core Two Duo Intel Processor, 2gigs of ram, 250gig hard drive - Windows XP Professional Computer 2 : 11" iBook G4 Processor, 768Mb of ram, 80gig hard drive - Mac OSX 10.4 Tiger Computer 3 : 15" (screen) Dell Tower, Celeron Processor, 512mb of Ram, 80gig hard drive - Linux Ubuntu (7.08?

February 29, 200818 yr Its quite literally the best computer I've ever owned I think the resolution is 1900 x 1200 ? put it this way, i can fit 3 full size A4 microsoft word documents in windows beside eachother and be able to type comfortably in each. Not cheap though! i took out a loan to afford that badboy, which I wouldnt normally do, but I see it as an investment
February 29, 200818 yr Just seeing that iMac makes me hate you! I'm dying to get my hands on one. Well said! As for Sarah Shahi, she's an actress. Google her.
February 29, 200818 yr Well said! As for Sarah Shahi, she's an actress. Google her. That was one of the best Google searches I've done this year! I'm a fan of her too now!
February 29, 200818 yr Author That was one of the best Google searches I've done this year! I'm a fan of her too now! I agree with you RobH, 100 bloomin percent! Thanks Rachael!
