Re: What speed(s) are your computers

Here's for my desktop, I'll post my laptop specs later if I get a chance.

Manufacturer: Hewlett-Packard
Model: pavillion 533w
Processor: Celeron 2.0 GHz
RAM: 2x256MB
Hard Drive 1: Maxtor 60GB
Hard Drive 2: Maxtor 30GB
Hard Drive 3: Western Digital 250GB
CD Drive 1: 16x/8x/8x/40x DVD-ROM/CD-RW combo drive
Other Drives: 1.44 MB (3.5-inch)
USB Ports: Six (two front and four back)
Serial Ports: One
Parallel Ports: One

Could've sworn that I had more than 2.0ghz, as well as a pentium, but I guess not...

I don't know who wants to top that, but good luck...

Why only 60? Get a nice 100gb harddrive. 100 is a nice round number, much nicer than 60.
