Forgive me if this has been done before.

Post your PC specs and let's see who packs the most horsepower.

Aunty Em....you rule.

Actually Version 4 is going to my mum... after the vid card, floppy drive, cd-rom, speakers, mouse, keyboard and monitor get here. I'll put a larger HDD in for her later, but for the moment she has to learn to use it.

... and Version 5 will shortly be leaving for my nieces flat... she just needs a machine for word-processing and some graphics work for college and that one works fine for that.

so then we'll be back to 3... thank god!
 
Even at that you still rule. As a geek myself and with near no knowledge of PCs i appreciate your PC collection.

Trouble is I'm very fond of my 'puters and quite reluctant to part with them... :)

4??? You think 4 is a lot? I've that many at the summer cottage. No, wait. I lie. The mac is a comp too. That makes 5. At home, I've 4 laptops, 3 servers, the linux cluster of 4, 2 clones, 2 desktops, and 2 Macs. I make that 22. All in good running order.







If I ever get raided for licenses, I'm dead.

I think that probably applies to most builders... :D

... and 5 not 4... one for every room in the appartment except the bathroom... I have a small apartment... :p

... anyway... once 4 and 5 have gone I can concentrate on building my ITX in a biscuit tin. It's a nice metalic blue.

No Irix? :p

I have four in my room, six if you count the laptops which are always on. Two more for my parents and brother.

In my room...
Main machine (XP): 2600+/333 XP - Asus A7N8X Deluxe nForce2 w/ 768mb of 266/333
Secondary machine (RedHat 8): Athlon Tbird 900/100 - Epox 8KHA+ w/ 256mb of 266
Laptop (Slackware): 450 PIII - IBM ThinkPad 390X w/ 384mb PC100
Laptop (XP): 266 PII - IBM ThinkPad 390E w 256mb PC66
File/Network/Terminal Server (RedHat 7.3): Duron 700@900 - MSI Pro Turbo2 w/ 768mb PC133
Dumb Terminal (RedHat 7.3 via LTSP): Gateway P5-166 (Pentium) w/ 48mb EDO :eek:
Outside my room...
Brothers' (XP): 733 PIII - Gigabyte GA-6VX7+ w/ 384mb PC133
Parents' (2000 Pro): Celeron 366 - Asus (I forget...an HP pull) w/ 256mb PC100

I lose.

I want a Solaris box just to say I have one. They make great dhcp/dns servers.

i missed out on an SGI box by about 15 minutes last winter, that would have been fun to play with.

you can get solaris 9 for x86, i think it's like $25 to download disc images

as for my machines:
desktop -- xp1600 / 256mb 266 / radeon 8500 / 40gb / slackware 9.0
laptop -- p3-800 / 192mb / shit mach64 / 20gb / slackware 8.1
server/router -- p1-200 / 96mb / ? / 6.4gb / slackware 8.1 / running firewall, smtp, pop, ntp, gkrellm, distributed, dns, dhcp, etc. etc.

looks like i'm okay for licenses. the rest of the PCs in the house are windows boxes, i could care less about them, i avoid them like the plague.

I was thinking of getting a SparcStation 20 or something like that to have sitting somewhere (they're just cool looking in my opinion). But I know once I got one, and found drives for it, I'd permanently move to the couch in the other room for sleep. :p
 
My comps change from week to week, sometime faster.
I don't like typing good enough to list um all here.
But my main one right now is: ...
.
Linux RedHat9 (Shrike) \ Windows 2000
P4-3.06gig
Asus P4T533
512mb PC1066-32bit
ATI Radeon 9000-64mb (upgrading soon)
Samsung 80gig 7200
Toshiba DVD-RW
Liteon DVD-rom
Microsoft cordless optical Blue mouse
GE cordless keyboard
Samtron 78DF 17"
Altec Lansing 5.1 Speakers
(Periodically plug in adaptec scsi raid w/2 cheetah 9 gig 10000rpm)
for file serving.
 
Athlon XP 2200+
Shuttle AK35GTR (KT266A)
512MB Nanya PC2700 DDR-RAM
Leadtek GF4Ti4400
SB Audigy2
Windows 2000 Professional SP2
 
Besides using them for different OS and as file servers, what do you use that many comptuers for? Including Rusty's we have two desktops and two laptops and one of them rarely ever gets used. I liked building them and playing with them for a while but I just don't have a use for that many machines.
