I made mine so it doesn't have a specifiec name brand, but I use AMD processors so I put a custom "AMD Speed Phreak" CPU sticker on it.

My next computer will probably be a Shuttle mini with dual monitor and s-video out.

TigerDirect:  http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=485618&Sku=S451-3040

I also hope to have two flat screen monitors, a natural wireless keyboard and mouse, wireless Linksys network card, DVD/CD-rom drive, Media center w/ Sony flash slot.  I will use with the two monitors in my study for software development, and in my living room and the big screen TV for games and testing.  I'm current researching operating systems.  I know Windows XP and Mandrake Linus work on the system fine, but I may do a dual boot Windows Media Center and Linux (version unknown now).  My only problem with this system is that it doesn't have a parallel port.  I know that port is out dated, but it is the only port I can use for Game Boy Advance development since I use a non-official SDK.  If I could get the official Nintendo SDK for GBA (and DS since I am dreaming) I would be a very happy person.

A couple years ago I added 128mb RAM, and apparently I'm maxed out at 256mb. *coughcoughwheeze*

Luigison, if you're thinking of a Shuttle, how about getting this?  (It was just announced).  It looks like a cross between a Panasonic Q and a toaster.  See here: IWILL ZMAXdp.  For the parallel connection, can't you just get a parallel-USB adapter?  Also, if you're buying from TigerDirect, can you use this link?

Picture the slowest, most uncooperative machine you can think of. Got it? My computer's worse than that.

This is what manuals are good for! My computer is an Apple iBook from 2000 (it's orange)

 - Processor: G3
 - Processor Speed: 300 Megahertz
 - RAM: 192 Megabytes
 - Hard Disk Size: 6 Gigabytes
 - Internet Speed: I have DSL, is that what you want here?
 - Preferred Screen Resolution: I checked, it's something like 800 by 600?
 - Operating System(s): Mac OS 9.1

I probably have the oldest computer of anyone here. My old computer was something like 16 Megahertz and the hard drive was around 40 Megabytes. No internet on that one and it ran Mac OS 7. The reason I bring it up is because I just got it out after someone told me to take the battery out if I'm storing it long term. It was actually an easy fix--the cover just snaps on and off of the computer and the battery is in a regular battery socket! (My old computer was a Macintosh LC)

I have two computers.  Here are links to their specs:


I also have a couple of other PCs and an iMac that I'm not using.

Actually I'd say Abercrombie's computer might be younger than mine, though they were made the same year.

 - Processor: PowerPC G3
 - Processor Speed:  500 MHz
 - RAM: Originally 128 MB, but I upped it to 384 MB about 3 years ago.
 - Hard Disk Size: 25~27 GB
 - Internet Speed: I just know that I have cable, I don't know the actual speed. :D
 - Preferred Screen Resolution: 1024 x 768, it's the maximum, actually.
 - Operating System: Mac OS X 10.4.8, but I can switch it over to Mac OS 9.2.2 if I ever need to, which is rare.

 - RAM: 10 Megabytes (came with 2)
 - Hard Disk Size: 40 Megabytes
 - Internet Speed: None
 - Preferred Screen Resolution: 512 by 384 (my monitor was only 12 inches!)

My 486 has a 12-inch monitor. I don't think they were very uncommon.
That was a joke.
