After two years I finally fixed my PC!

HP Pavillion
2.4 GHz Pentium 4
80 GB HDD
512 MB RAM
NVIDIA GeForce FX 5200 (Yeah, I know it sucks)
Windows XP Home Edition

I might up the RAM to 1GB, but only after I do the same to my iBook. :)

Yay! Now you can stop talking about my PCs! You, too, have a skeleton in your closet! :•]

She's a WIP :p.
My PC is a Dell Inspiron 600M, nothing special!
 
My old Gatway (2.6 GHz/512 MB RAM/80GB HD) still works but only my neighbor's son uses it. It shares a desk with my canon printer. I use my Mac Pro at home and Blackbook when traveling.

It's called a Profile 5. They came out about 5 years ago. It was Gateways answer to the iMac, the All-in-One PC. It does have a nice small foot-print. Mine is the 17inch. Webshots does look fine on it. The second shot is of my MacPro, I use a 26inch HDTV as the monitor.
 
I just got Virtual PC 7 With Windows XP Home, and it's awesome, I've only got 300Mb HD space due to the fact that just before I finished setting it up, I accidentally pulled the power cord, so I had Install it again, anyway, It's awesome, an it run so smoothly.

Dude, no offense to you, but I'm laughing so hard right now.

If you think its smooth, go use a Pentium 3 or 4 based PC. Even a lowend P3 running XP Home flys in comparision to Virtual PC.
 
Here's my Windows setup - I don't have a PC at home, so I thought I'd post my work desktop

Lenovo T60:-
Windows Vista Business with SP1 (and hating it)
60GB HDD
2GB RAM

22" Lenovo display
1650x1080

Microsoft Natural Ergonomic Keyboard 4000

Microsoft Comfort Optical Mouse 3000

Cisco IP Phone 7911 Series with no handset as I use my Plantronics CS60 wireless headset

I've attached my current wallpaper too. I took this on the Brooklyn Bridge back in September 2007 with my Canon EOS 400d (Digital Rebel XTi).

Yes.It's slow, incredibly slow. I guess I was just surprised that it didn't completely grind to a halt even while idle, and it may as well belong to Nasa compared to Puppy Linux in Q.
 
This thread needs to be renamed to 'Post Your PC Setup' instead of 'Post Your Windows Setup'. This is my 64-bit Archlinux machine;

What do you use it for?
Click to expand...
Pretty much everything. Web browsing, IRC, music/video/DVD (it's connected to my TV & hi-fi), coding/development, spot of gaming, etc. It's my main machine, I only use my MacBook for Adobe software (Photoshop, Lightroom) & when I'm on the go.
 
Ah, quite so.

Anyway, my POS camera is getting fired up. I figured I'd get y'all some photos of the laptops I'm using currently.

Ah, here we go:
