My computer is probably the oldest here, it's 7 years old and cost like 1200 pounds. I wish I knew things about computers then, I would've slapped my mom and dad and told them to buy one with lower specs, then get a new one a few years later. It's still not that bad though, just the graphics card sucks.

It's great if you use Linux for heavy processing work like rendering but still want to play Windows games on the same computer. I don't know why you'd want two versions of Windows though. Maybe he prefers XP but wants to play Chess Titans in startling 3D.

At first is was just to compare the 2 OS.. then it became Directx 10 gaming mainly. I like Xp more though and my wireless lan card doesnt work with vista so the vista partition doesnt have internet.. so im beginning to use it less and less.

A reason i like it though, is that on the off chance my xp fucks up (which is has) I can still log only vista save all the important files i need from xp through vista onto my external.

Basically like rob and tempest said.. there is no real point apart from the above but it does come in handy every now and again.

Getting an external HD was the smartest move I ever made. It's crammed with hundreds of movies and songs, but my built-in hard drive is less than half-full.

It is until you end up with four external 500gig HD's.

I may be mistaken but mine seems to be the best so far. Matt seems close though

Oh i thought i had posted in here, must have forgot.

Model: Dell Inspiron

OS: Got it pre-installed with Win XP SP2 for now (to hell with Vista, thanks Dell for standing up to MS), and soon be getting some Linux distros installed (not made my mind up yet)
I have several Live OSs as well, including FreeBSD+SpinRite (awesome for drives), UltimateBootCD somewhere in a pile of CDs, Slax.
CPU: Intel Dual-core 1.6Ghz, 800MB FSB, 1MB cache
RAM: 2gigs DDR2
GPU :
nVidia ..uh, something, ah, here we go
128MB nVidia GeForce 8300GS
Is now a Ati Radeon HD 2600 XT, but i'm thinking of changing it back because there seems to be some major ass lag in some games.

Drives & other input:
120gig 7200RPM S-ATA drive
I have some other external drives which i was using, till their power supplies died
Ripped them out and will now be using them with a Kama Connect 2 (just arrived today actually, woo!)
They are 250gig IDE and 500gig IDE (PC doesn't support IDE! damn Dell!), and i guess i might as well throw in the old laptops drive as well, which is 30gigs.
DVD +/- RW 16x
2 Firewire (:lol: never even seen anything using firewire)
8 USB2 ports (not enough! I need to get myself a hub, saw a sweet little transparent blue UFO shaped one)
19-in-1 card reader (sooo useful)
2 Mic sockets (front and back)

Outputs:
Headphones (front)
Full surround sound (back and also not used... yet)
DVI (was VGA before, might be again)

I think i might get more of those Kama Connects and stack them (easily stackable) and just buy HDDs, much cheaper than getting external HDDs, and MUCH easier to handle.
And i will never be getting another Seagate drive, EVER.
No wonder they sold 1 billion drives the other month there, ALL THE REPLACEMENTS!!
I also intend getting an 8gig internal DRAM SSD ($200~) sometime in the future.

Well,
Back
1) keyboard
2) mouse
3) little light thingy, 8 blue LEDs in it, really sweet light, had it 2 years now
4) Speakers
front
1) Kama Connect 2
2) Trackball (wireless)
3) Mobile modem, just in case the internets gets screwed up. (that isn't always in mind you)
And i guess 4 isn't used now since that crappy power supply died on the external.

And there are no firewire ports on them either, which is a little saddening.
Oh well, at least i can say i still have 2 firewire ports, just in case i do get something that uses them.

Also, i've seen people using 16+ USB ports before :lol:
Craziest was the person using about 32 i think it was, that little USB frying pan thing.

:yes:

It's been through a few upgrades, but I think this is pretty much the end of the line before I go a new motherboard; this one (M2N32-SLI Deluxe, it was the Rolls Royce back in the day) doesn't support AM2+

But if I go a new motherboard, it'll be an Intel one. I'm afraid AMD has lost my love, after many many years of lovin'

I just remembered too, that I've got a Western Digital Raptor (10k RPM, runs fast, but hot) for my system drive, and 2 500gig Seagates in RAID0 for "everything else". I was going to do some other funky RAID stuff, but in the end I couldn't be bothered.

Haven't been able to overclock anything, sans the CPU. The board utilizes water blocks and heat piping on the northbridge and southbridge, which is pretty sufficient without water cooling, but doesn't allow for much of a boost in the FSB. Temperatures are getting close to unstable levels already. Water cooling is next though, and I'm hoping to take it sky-high.

I would go as far to say that if you want a lean mean gaming machine, stay away from Vista. Too many resources are used up just trying to run the OS, precious resources that could be used for your games.

XP 64 is the most stable thing on the market right now.

64bit is a terrible choice for games. I've seen nothing but pain trying to make a gaming rig on 64bit.

If only there was more driver support for Windows 2000. Now THERE was a beast of an OS (Windows-wise, anyways)

As of about two hours ago I have a system built on a 3GHz Dual Core. Most of the other stuff I need to work on, but a lot of it is new and runs a hell of a lot better than I'm used to.
