Your PC specs.
 
I'm not a computer guy, nor do I consider myself one, but I just thought it would be interesting of people do post the specs of their PCs as many people on PC forums post their PC specs like their car ones(if they have one). Here are mine.


Athlon Thunderbird 1.33Ghz
ECS Motherboard
256DDR Ram
Quantum 20Ghz 7200rpm HD
Hitachi 8xDVD, 32xCD
VideoExcel GeForce2 MX400 oced to 240Mhz clock, 185Mhz memory
Sound Blaster Live Value
Mid sized case with 300W power supply and upgraded cooling (runs at a low 30C but whisper quiet)
Samsung SyncMaster 955DF monitor- 19inch
Monsoon 505 Flat Panel Speakers
Aopen keyboard
Microsoft WheelMouse Optical
Maxell Web Cam
Epson Stylus C60 printer

Nothing spectacular today, but was mad fast then, and still is. Serves me well for my browsing, DVD viewing, MP3 blasting, and Counter Strike needs. And I love it.

Gateway advertised a payment plan. Like a 36 month plan or something. But instead it ended up being a revolving credit plan with 26% interest. Then to dodge the attacks they sold our accounts to different banks so that now we do not do business with Gateway. In fact so many people have been scammed that the bank itself sold our accounts to another company so that now I am paying someone totally unrelated to gateway.
