Re: Computer for FIRST
Our computer, which is extremely old, runs windows NT 4.0 workstation, pentium 1, 512 ram (which is a lot for a computer that old), sound, video, and others are integrated I believe, that or they're too old to be worth anything, it was actually useful for programming, but nowadays we do everything on new laptops.

Basically you want to invest in a high amount of (preferable high speed, good quality) RAM, it makes a huge difference when it comes to animation and the sorts. Super graphics card isn'tthat necessary. Any current processor should do, just don't get celerons or durons.
