What speed is your computer

Damian_Manda · January 12, 2003, 3:47pm

What speed is the computer that you use most often? If you want, post any other specs you want too.

Jeff_Waegelin · January 12, 2003, 4:31pm

Well, let’s see, I currently posess the following PCs

486 25 mHz desktop
Pentium 90 laptop
P-II 300 desktop
P-III 450 desktop
P-4 1.7 GHz laptop
P-4 2.53 desktop

Only the last four are usually running, though I occasionally drag out the P90 laptop for programming (less often now that I have a working serial port). The P4 1.7 laptop is my main machine, though. The others are used by other family members.

It’s amazing how they now use gigahertz to measure speed instead of MHz. Anyhow

Intel Celeron 1.5 GHz
512MB RAM
NVIDIA GeForce 4 MX420
about 60GB total hard drive space (2 HDs)

Those are the basic specs. There’s much more I’ll add later.

For our new computer, we have a Thunderbird AMD Athlon 950MHz chip and for our really really old computer, all I know is it’s a 66MHz chip. We could’ve gotten a 1GHz Athlon chip but my dad didn’t want to pay extra to get it. It wasn’t that much either.

**Yamaha CRW-F1 burner **

Isn’t that the coolest CD Burner ever? You can burn a CD with pictures and text on the back, and it burns at like 44x.

I don’t have anything special, just a 1.3 Athlon, 100gb, 512mb DDR, Geforce 2, Yamaha CRW-F1

My family has a dead Pentium 233 MHz that I am dying to take apart

Jack_Regal · January 28, 2003, 6:06pm

Yes my processor is only 800 MHz. But it’s good for about 3.5 gigaflops. While running 4 or 5 apps.
Specs:

800 MHz PPC G4
768 MB RAM
nVidia GeForce 4MX - makes it hard to run linux ppc
Superdrive - kinda bad (2x DVD write, 8x CD write)
USB
Firewire
7 button mouse w/ scrollwheel - not made by apple
17" LCD
80 GB HD
