I have one of those too in the spares box. It would run Star Wars Battlefront (startup took forever), but eventually the battery died. Mine only had 1GB of RAM.
21.5" iMac
Second 17" LCD monitor
WACOM Intuos3 tablet
AKAI MPK Mini
Although I really want one of these badboys to replace my LCD monitor. They have them at work and they are total bad-ass.
HDD: 300GB at 7200 rpm (yea, i need a shit ton more space, gonna buy a 2tb soon)
RAM: 8GB
CPU: Intel Core i3-2100 CPU @ 3.10GHz
Graphics Card: Gigabyte Amd HD 6950
Motherboard: MSI P67S-C43
For perspective reason, runs BF3 Completely maxed with 2x AA instead of 4x at 50-60 fps.
I usually just play it on high just because i get a constant 70-80 fps and hardly a graphical difference.
This is from memory but:
CPU: AMD Phenom II x4 970 BE (OCed to 4.0GHz)
GPU: PowerColor Radeon HD 6770
RAM: 2x4GB Corsair G. Skill Sniper
PSU: OC-Z 650w
Mobo: ASRock Extreme 3 970 (AM3+)
HDD: 1TB Seagate 7200rpm + 250GB external
Two monitors one at 1920x1080 and the other at 1280x1024
Microsoft Sidewinder keyboard
CoolerMaster CM Spawn mouse
and an uncomfortable chair from Target
Bother, bother, bother… it turns out the my Dell Studio 1537 is not up to development work - it overheats and emergency shuts down if i do a heavy run of tests and compiles. My temporary workaround is to enable power saving and downclock the CPU to 60%. I’ll have to dd a laptop cooler to my dev rig…
Did you clean out all the dust clogging up the airways?
Yep, I opened up the case and scooped out the dust with a spoon 
Seriously, when I opened the case I couldn’t find any significant dust buildups.
By the time I can see any dust in my PC’s case, it’s formed a thick cake on the CPU heatsink. Grab a can of compressed air and give the heatsink a good blast. Just had to do that earlier this week and I was amazed at how much dust came flying out that I never saw before.
I love my case, a Cooler Master CM 690 Advanced II, because it has dust filters in front of all fans. The only place where dust is caked is on those filters: easy cleanup baby!
Haven’t clean my desktop PC for almost 4 years 
And I fear how would I clear a netbook…
Disassemble, clean, reassemble, hope it works. ;D
Very bland, but put it together for only $263 a few years ago:
CPU: AMD Athlon II x2 240 (2.8GHz)
GPU: ATI Radeon HD 420 (on MB)
RAM: 4GB
HD: 680GB WD
OS: Ubuntu 10.04 LTS
Editor: jEdit (or VI)
I’ve been using an MS Natural keyboard (throws up in mouth a little bit) for many years (not the newer 4000 models, but the older edition). I like the key separation, but I’m beginning to hate the action. It slows me down.
What’s the fastest keyboard type? I’m considering chicklet keys, but would ideally want to retain the split layout. Proper arrow keys and insert/delete cluster are important (as shown in the solar wireless picture in prior post).
I’m afraid it won’t work, especially the guarantee still on go ;D
I love the Razer Arctosa keyboard, very low profile responsive keyboard … no split though. I use one at work, and my fingers thank me every day for it. I also like my G510 for the lit keys and macro buttons but holy cow it feels like typing on a DEC VT52 by comparison.
My pcs get a vacuum (ensuring that the power lead is still in the power supply to allow a earth return… vacuum cleaners are prone to developing a static charge!) every time my wife decides it time to either a) do a major clean of the house or b) decides its time to re-arrange the house! I dont know why but every so often she likes to swap our study with our main bedroom! )
Hey everyone!

I have an old HP compaq, Single Core Sempron 2 Ghz or something. Still runs perfectly after 6 years.
Pretty cheap compared to the US for example, since, it seems, everyone in the US has a capped bandwidth.
Here in germany its like 20-40 bucks, 16000 + DSL
Have seen 64000 and VDSL and stuff… not all that much more expensive
$30 a month, I get 20Mb down and 4Mb up, no cap. I live in Georgia, US.
