hey man what system exactly?

Ahh, yes, my brother's computer. He kinda needs to keep it better than mine to make up for certain other inadequacies he has... oh well.

Corrections to Splinter's typos and errors:

- 1 60GB HDD and 1 15GB HDD
- CD/RW is 12x10x32, not 12x6x24
- It's called a GeForce2MX, not a "GeFroce"

And unlike him, I've already passed the "must have bigger and better" stage of computer upgrading.

But I must say, his Logitech Z-560's absolutely rule.

[Stryke 9]

Some smallish amount of RAM (either computer. One might be up in the gigabytes, but I doubt it).
Dual CPUs, assumedly P3s/ one CPU, assumedly pre-Pentium Intel.
3 HDs, 1 about 4Gb, 1 about 40, 1 about 10/ same
ELSA GLoria hotness/Matrox Millennium
Variable (16x?) CD burner, DVD drive/DVD reader, busted CD burner
Crappy side-brand speakers/crappy broken speakers (loose contact, makes it buzz loudly when controls twiddled)
Mouse/what a mouse would look like designed by Picasso
Keyboard/keyboard
21"? Princeton/19"? ****-if-I-know
Rubber duck/dust

I have a stronger CPU and a GE FORCE 4 with 128 MB RAM and some other cool stuff. It's just that you have 500 more MB ram than I do. Of course, I am not a RAM nerd (no offence). Anyway, it is not so bad. Have fun "playing" with it. And be carefull not to hurt yourself.

By the way, what's the point of making a whole thread about getting a new PC? Where did you get it? From outer space or something?

[Nico]

put caps to Outer Space thank you ( I'm probably the only one to understand why I say that, but never mind )

[Kazan]

For Reference: you'd have to pay me to use an nVidia-based board - they're total crapmongers


my soundsystem is a Logitech THX Z560

Gabe: NICE

i can fill my gigabyte of ram with stuff i work on in my game developement project [ueberhigh resolution graphics - poster quality graphics for the starmaps and stuff]
