View Full Version : What kinds of computers y'all have?
Pedantic 03-12-2003, 09:41 PM What the title says. :) Post stats if ya got 'em. ;)
My computer, I'm proud to say, is custom-built by my little self. :D I've attached a pic, since it is beautiful. ;) It is an aluminum, silver Chieftec case with a window on the side. There is a decal of my own design on the window. I have a blue light underneath the case (a la Fast and Furious), a blue light inside the computer, and a blue light in the "grille." :D There's also a tiny LCD display in a drive bay and a row of switches for the internal fans and lighting. And for the guts...I have an MSI KT3-Ultra mobo, an Athlon 2400+, a Radeon 9700 Pro, 512MB PC2700 Corsair CL2 RAM, 80GB 8MB Cache Western Digital HD, Sony DVD, and Lite-On CD-RW. Yeah, the bare essentials. ;) :D Now your turn...:)

You should considering Me was the worst **** ever put out. :D Windows XP is much more stable since it is based on Windows 2000 Professional, which is da ****. ;) :D

I have that same exact printer. :p
Anyway, mine's a Dell. I've had it for 5 years and have Windows 98 Plus. No real problems with it, just that it can be slow as hell at times. I'm planning to get a new one at the end of my freshman year, and this one will be at home while I'm in college. So yea, I won't really miss it that much. :p I need to work to pay off college tuition so after I get some extra money, I'll save up and buy a new computer.

Ditto.
It's perty and black. 17'' monitor...spacesaver model...so it's all skinny and stuff. I love my computer. I had a gateway but it was a piece of crap.
Penny Lane 03-13-2003, 08:44 PM I have 2 . An HP and an E Machine. I like them both. I prefer XP too!:)

Tuesday Weld 03-13-2003, 09:06 PM Compaq :rolleyes:
dawsongirl 03-13-2003, 10:32 PM Dell Inspiron 2500 Laptop. This is not the most portable laptop in the world though. It weighs like 8 pounds. And goes thru batteries like Cookie Monster with...cookies! :D
Windows ME- screws up all the time on the internet
And the model is discontinued and there are no upgrades that Dell makes anymore.
consentida 03-13-2003, 10:38 PM Gateway...

I never really had that much trouble with ME. I prefer Windows 95 or 98 though. I'd give anything for 98 so I could at least use one computer for everything including to capture my photos from the tv. I'm too cheap to buy the new upgraded version of my capturing device especially since the one I have now was a gift from my brother. I have two computers in my room, no wonder it feels so small!

MandieR1980 03-15-2003, 08:48 PM Right now Dude I have a Dell, it's a Dell Dimension 8200 with XP, 2.00 GHz and 512 ram
Past PCs
Compaq Presario (biggest piece of sh*t I ever bought, Compaqs are EVIL)
AST (My dad bought this off of a coworker it was my first PC ever)
I'm hoping to get a laptop in the future.
bandito 03-15-2003, 11:12 PM Why does everyone hate Compaq so much? I just bought one and its been great *knock on wood* I hope I did the right thing by buying it. :confused:

If you just bought it I suggest returning it ASAP, I got mine in 98 and about a year after that I had to have the CDRom drive replaced and the PC itself gets really slow very fast. The tech support is awful. Seriously return it because you will regret buying it I'm positive about that, I lost $1,600 on that hunk of junk. My aunt wanted it and I refused to take money for it so it's in her living room right now.
MandieR1980 03-15-2003, 11:18 PM I forgot to mention, for more info about why Compaq is awful visit www.compaqsucks.com

LoL. My dad has had a Compaq notebook for quite some time now, and to the best of my knowledge it has served him well. But, of course, he takes religious care setting up his computers, as do I. ;) :D Fortunately, I haven't had any trouble with my HP notebook either.
InspectorExstead 03-16-2003, 03:25 PM i have a sony vaio.
Nanny Fine 03-16-2003, 03:37 PM an antiquated piece o'junk. I'm lucky it works.
