Of course everyone is also welcome to post what they have along with speed, although voting is mandatory.


I'll start, Althlon XP-M 2000+. All must bathe in my obsolescence..........


Limit one vote per person, if you use more than one than just pick whichever one you use the most.
"The reason for this is that the original Fortran got so convoluted and extensive (10's of millions of lines of code) that no-one can actually figure out how it works, there's a massive project going on to decode the original Fortran and write a more modern system, but until then, the UK communication network is actually relying heavily on 35 year old Fortran that nobody understands." - Flipside

I use an Intel Core 2 Duo E8500 "Wolfdale" running at the stock speed of 3.16 GHz. Me love Intel processors long time.

Boystrous 19 year old temp at work slapped me in the face with an envelope and laughed it off as playful. So I shoved him over a desk and laughed it off as playful. It's on camera so I can plead reasonable force.  Temp is now passive.

Yea pick one.  I picked the Core 2 Quad.  I actually use my Pentium 4 extreme 3.06ghz  the most but it's over 6 years old.  Shows dual processor but I think that's just because of the hyper-threading.  It was pre-Pentium-D (which you forgot on the list).  I've got the full list of Intel though.  From Pentium 100 (still running MS-DOS 6.22) to a few P2 and P3's in the 400-500 range.  An 866 (originally built for FS2).  Pentium D 3.6, Couple of core2Duos and the Core2Quad.  Can't remember what the file servers are running.  Think one is another Pentium D 3.6 and the other a regular Pentium 4.  Oh and another 866 Laptop.

Since I'm taking this poll on my IBM crate...
* Androgeos Exeunt has voted.

...I voted for Celeron. This ThinkCentre that I'm using to type this, which I recently increased total RAM from 256 MB to 1.99 GB, has an Intel Celeron D 331 2.66 GHz, 256 KB L2 cache, 532 MHz FSB. Intel calls it "Prescott".

My MacBook has a 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, which is capable of running almost anything that a Mac can run.

Could you elaborate on that? If it has two cores it's not a Q6600 but an E6600.
