what u got?

I noticed in a thread about win XP people started listing what systems they ran at home and at work - i thought this was interesting but couldn't be assed searching through 50 comments about win XP to see 2 or 3 interesting comments - thus i've started this thread. If people would like to list what sort of technology they've got knocking around - not just computers - home cinema systems, gprs devices, robot butlers etc.

Personally i have 6 pc's - 3 386's with 4meg of ram - all running debian slink, a 486/32meg with a *full-size* scsi hard disk (about the size of a house brick!) running debian woody, a k5 166/16meg that gets a new os every week and my main pc - a 700mhz duron/512meg dual booting w2k and debian sid. My other passion besides computers (and skateboarding, but we'll not go into that now) is home cinema - i have an all sony setup with hella good 100hz 32" flatscreen and a dvp s550d dvd player with a tae9000es preamp feeding a tan9000es amp - all wired together with top of the range ecosse interconnects.

1 - 200 MHZ Pentium, 96 meg ram,
2 - 450 MHZ AMD K6-2, 96 megs ram
3 - 1.3GHZ AMD Athlon, 128 megs ram

Running Windows 98 on the 2 less powerful machines, and XP on the newest one...

1. AMD 900 Mhz 512 Mb RAM - multi boot (Win2k pro, Win2k adv server, NT server, Win98, WinXP, Suse 7.3)
2. PIII 450Mhz 384Mb RAM - dual boot (Win2k Pro + Win98SE)
3. 486 128Mb RAM Mandrake 8.1
4. Toshiba Laptop PIII 700Mhx 192Mb Dual boot (Win2k pro & NT server)
Home network 10/100 with a switch, the 486 has ISDN connectivity and is a firewall / proxy.
Laser printer, Scanner, TV cards etc etc.

1. AMD 500 256 MB, dual boot Win2k and Suse 7.2
2. 486 running OpenBSD 2.9
3 Sparc 2 acting as firewall running OpenBSD 2.9
4 IBM thinkpad 400 mhz dual boot Win2k and Suse 7.2

1. Dual PIII 933 1GB Ram running XP Pro
2. 900 Athlon 500MB Ram running 2k Server SQL2000 and Oracle 8i
3. PII 400 500MB Ram running 2k Server and VMware and anything else so no dual booting :o)
4. PII 400 256MB Ram running 2k Server with Checkpoint NG

amds are for people living in federally funded housing.
dual booting a *nix os and windows is for pathetic wannabes who can't handle unix and want to impress their friends while doing /sv on IRC and setting up shell accounts on their dial ups.
Having 4 386s running linux is the most pointless thing I have ever heard, all that a 386 running linux is good for is using VI. Using a switched network for four machines is a waste of money. It is obvious that you are all just trying to impress your sad computer friends with pathetic powerless machines that barely use 10% of their efficiency.

As for paulcottingham you cannot have 500mb of ram in a PC, and running SQL 2000 and Oracle 8i together is a good way to eat up all your ram and sounds absolutely ridiculous.

oh and Focmaester, solaris 8 kicks open bsd's nsa backdoored ass on a sparc processor any day.

finally a 32 inch television is pitiful.

Compaq laptop 400mhz 96mb ram, piece of crap

My real beauty: IBM 286 (33mhz!) with a whopping 640k of ram, with the 'new' vga video technology. That thing is the heaviest typewriter i've ever seen.

Nintendo 64 dual boot with a sega master system -1k of ram :)

Instead of listing everything, I just took a picture of my living room and put labels on the machines. I thought this would be easier and prove that I really have all these machines :D :D

I'm glad you people are so mature
\\you cannot stand the truth


The AntiPoints level on this post is somewhat negative.

You have -137 AntiPoints.

What others are saying about this post...
hope u get cancer u ****

How the hell Knightmb did u get them to stick to the ceiling upsidedown u must be the hacker 31337 that everybody goes on about :D :D


where u from hehbris ..Im guessing maybe the u.k. with your ease of use of the word **** cos i think most Americans hate the use of that word..maybe im wrong

I editted it because surely this would have started a riot

Can't stand the truth eh hehbris, you say a 386 running linux is only good for running vi, and thats the truth is it? I'd have to disagree - one of my 386 boxen runs ntop, kepping an eye on everything going in and coming out of my network. Another 386 i use as a testbed for development in perl. Am i using 10% of my computers efficiency? (and what the **** is a computers efficiency anyway?)
And what about amd being for people from federally funded housing, as intel clones go, you'd be hard pushed to find a better chip. Maybe you can show me some statistics to back your claim up - and i don't want to hear you spout any **** about sparc's or alphas either, be realistic.

And i have 3 386's, not 4 - you dumb****.

1) p3 800, 256 mb ram(only at pc100 tho:-/), 20 gig hd, GeForce 256, some crappy cdrw, a toshiba dvd-rom, creative dvd decoder card, nic card(not sure what, it came with my dsl install kit), sb live! platnum w/ live drive, creative DDT 5.1 surround speakers, dont know mobo cause i got this one from gateway. running win2k.

2) amd t-bird 850, 128 mb ram(pc 133), 40 gig hd(ultra-100), GeForce 2, creative cdrw(i think), nic card(cant remember what i got), Asus A7v Mobo, sb live! x-gamer, boston acustic 2.1 speakers. running win2k, soon to be dual booting with linux so i can learn that.

3) amd t-bird 1.something ghz, 30 gig hd, GeForce (2?) DDR, cdrw, dvd-rom(software decoding), nic card, sb live! x-gamer, asus mobo, klipsh 2.1 speakers. running win2k.(this is the one my bro built so i dont know the specs as well)

4) unused 486 sitting in my basement :)

test bed for perl applications
HeHEehEHEeHOhohOHHOHOHo
ntop HAehehEHEEheHEheeheHE
Now these require MONDO ressources.
you can do this all on one machine, they would probably run better on one good machine.You are a little SHOW OFF. Amds are cheap because they're made cheap bucko, i don't care what benchmark you show me, I can pump 60 000 volts through a P75 and say YO CHECK DIZ **** OUT YO MAN. And sparcs are realistic considering there are now ultra sparc stations priced at $999 USD. ScHoOlED MoFo.

<yawn>
whatever hehbris, you're boring me now.

Did i mention that dumbass son of mine has a tiny penis, hells yeah, that shits miniscule.

Listen here you little brat, AMD beats intel on performance/price any day.
And OpenBSD kicks Solaris ass anytime, @ HAL kiddies like you started to challenge Theo de Raad on technological grounds and when he told them to step outside they ****ing ended up argueing and fighting against themselves.
ANd if ****ing America's top 10 hacker says OpenBSD is secure and designs a firewall based upon it I sure as hell will take his word above yours ANY TIME.

My computer is old junk. The thing that is the best on it are the compilers. Im running the student editions of Microsoft Visual Basic 6.0, and Microsoft Visual C++. I also have the quickBasic compiler. For java I have jdk 1.3.1 with JCreator LE, and Forte for java. As for cobol I dont have a compiler yet. In my car I have a Clarion proaudio 6675 CD player with a 5 band crossfire passive equalizer/crossover. All my high end speakers are crossed over at 100 hertz high pass, while my lows have a 50 hertz low pass and a 20 hertz subsonic filter.

*looks at petemcevoy suspicously* This sounds like a thread where your doing market research... so you can knock over our houses :) jez kidding... although.. not a bad idea... every geek is proud of his box..... *schemes*

Hoping to buy another [486 'bout 8 meg ram] to use as a router / firewall.

??:confused: looks like a tv set, sounds like a refrigerator!

Ok, first siouxchief: Nintendo 64 dual boot...ROFLMAO!! That's truly great.

Thought it was funny too..

you might find this amusing too compared to the stuff ye all have ..

i only have win98 dual booting with Red hat :-)

god that sounds embarrasing wish i could afford more but im just a studnet and basically drink my money at the w-end

Interesting..

Well I have:


a terahertz tower with mind probe for subconscious use.

a 25 mhz 486 running windows xp -= runs great :mad:

a 5 mhz 286 running windows 2000 SQL 2000


i got a few other ones.. but.. to many to list..

hmm..

pIII 800mhz 512meg ram running win2k adv server

AMD K5 500mhz 128 meg ram running mandrake 8.0

and

pII 400mhz 128 meg ram running 2k server

Hehbris, I've only seen you post once or twice, but anyone who makes up a second name to insult themself for having a small penis has some issues they need to address. Maybe you should take some time away from the computer, go outside or something, good luck to you.

i am humbled by my lack of hardware...but anyways...(insults and depreciations included)

P2 - 350 overclocked to 450 (pointless, for the most part)

10G HDD (stop it with those goddamn MP3's, foolish girlfriend!)

192MB RAM (took about 3 minutes to put the 128MB stick in myself, yet Best Buy charges 30 bucks to do it...WTF it that?!?!)

Integrated (of course:() 3D video card (when they stop integrating those ****ing things, i'll be happy)

not much, but it works:)

Ouroboros: Are you yummy? (This question is rooted in theo-mythical legend. Please do not take it personally. If anyone gets the joke without looking it up, kudos.)

I have... well, I do almost 100% of anything I do on...

Dell System
Pentium II 400mhz processor
128mb ram
Geforce 2 GTS 32mb video (used to be an Nvidia Riva 128zx)
30 gig hard drive (used to use a 6 gig... was always trying to make more room.)
CD-ROM drive/CD-R(w) burner
Windows 98


I'm thinking of 'migrating' my vid card/HD/peripherals, and giving this old box to someone else to use. My futute planned system is along these lines:

A Case (To Be Determined but I've seen some nice ones)
VIA KT266A Motherboard
AMD Athlon 1500/1600 or somethin
256mb ram (PC133, most likely)
-- And then migrate most of the stuff over.

Oh, and one other thing... I have a Microsoft 'Natural' Keyboard (one of the original ones, not the ones with the new icky mini arrow keys and stuff) And I love it. It had served me for many years. Several of the keys are lacking their labels, and that's not from shoddy workmanship.

And I use an old-school rubber-ball mouse! TAKE THAT, un-necessary optical frippery! When I see all those 1.2ghz 'budget' computers in ads, I feel so old (in the nostalgic way) with my 400mhz...

yes i am, Terr:)...kudos to you!...
