so, I'm not good on specs, but I do have a french keyboard, which makes it so much better than eveyrone else's except sofie's, cos I can talk french without having to hunt the accents. And noone else can use it properly

-the bouncy sleepy bar of chocolate

well it's a start... ok, well I still have a boring old english keyboard (actually a really cheap and horrible one that I'm amazed is still working), and the rest of the PC is this -

• 2.4g Athlon processor (actually 2g but it's 2400 in AMD money),
• 512mb ram
• 2 x 40gb Maxtor hard drives (both 5400rpm - one is the original drive with the OS etc on it, and the other was originally in our Digifusion PVR, replaced by a 120gb drive and now used for itunes),
• Cheapo motherboard,
• 1 x CDRom, 1x CD writer & DVD combo drive, 1 x floppy,
• Sad old 17" CRT monitor which just keeps on working, damnit,
• OS: XP Pro, with Firefox, itunes, and Office 2000 (most used in that order).

We've also got a slightly tired IBM Thinkpad T20 still running Win98, but quite sprightly for its age..

Ok, I'll see that and raise you (well not really as you have the quicker CPU)

• AMD Athlon 2000XP (~1.6Ghz)
• NForce2 Mobo
• 512MB Ram
• SB Audigy 2
• 17" Monitor (pretty crappy though I can plug my puter into my 32" LCD TV)
• Radeon 9550 GFX Card
• Nice big case with 7 silent fans a glowing blue PSU
  

I also have an iBook G4 which again I can plug into my tele

Hey I forgot the graphics and sound, see how out of practice I am? It's an FX5200 Geforce card, and an Audigy (that's a 1, not 2).

But my processor still beats your processor

Delete! Delete!

Hmm, let's see...

2.4 GHz Pentium 4
1 gig RAM
2 x 40GB hard drives
1 x DVD/ CD Rom RW
1 x Floppy drive
Logitech Wireless Keyboard / Mouse
17" Proview TFT Monitor with built in speakers
GeForce 5200 graphics card

It does the job I guess

"Welcome to the end of the thought process..."

The main system is:

• AMD Sempron 2400+ (actual speed 1666MHz)
• 512MB RAM
• 80GB + 40GB hard drives
• Geeforce2 graphics card
• CD-RW
• DVD reader
• TV card
• 17" TFT
  

I might not be able to win on specs, but from where I'm sitting right now I have within reach[*] no less than four computers, and a KVM so that I can use them all.

*OK, so I do have to lean over to get to the laptop bag, but I don't have to get out of the chair

I also forgot to mention my 5400rpm 40gig drive and my 7200rpm 120gig drive.. silly me. Did I also forget the 933Mhz PC I have running server 2003 and my 600Mhz PC running Kubuntu linux?

Shame on me!

hehe
