I have a AMD 1900+ with a ASUS k7v333 mother board.

I just bought 2x512MB and 2x500GB SATA/300

that means, this computer is going to have
1.5GB RAM
256MB All-in-wonder pro
2x250GB RAID
2x500GB SATA
1x120GB main drive
2x320GB external drives
1x200GB external drives
2x60GB external drives.

that's 2.36TB of hard drive space!

that's

I need to add a 2x SATA II card now...

Funny you should mention that Rev. I just got done ordering an XPS M2010 with over 4 gigs ram at 533mhz... 5500 bucks just like that

who... you are kidding me.
is that for work?

my boss just ordered a similar thing, is it in a server case?
that's what he got and got 1/2 off so it was in the $2000's

some of it I will use for work. Im a design artist on VA beach, but the other half for my own pleasures

I got a dell 3GHz p4 at work with 3GB of RAM but I use that for making VMware builds.
I'm going to segment off a vmware pc for my GF. if I can figure out how to get it right, she should be able to use it to put songs on her iPod.

I can't wait for these parts to come in. when they do, I'm going to show the disks on the computer. it'll be amazing.

The Sony monitor I've been using for the last decade is twenty years old and somehow works perfectly.

Saying that in this context is like bringing a Model T to a futuristic car show, I know.

that's a 1.5Gb/s card.
I want a 3.0GB/s card, but my computer doesn't have PCI express and those cards with RAID are like $300-800

my 2x500GB drives came in today.
I don't have a controller card for them yet.
*sigh*

did i get any packages?

ok, I like the packaging for the box and everything. the drives have a 5-year warrenty! yeah!

yes carina

so I just got my new XPS laptop today. It pwns pretty much any laptop ive had before, but the resolution is terrible.

you didn't get the 1900x1200?
that was like $300 more.

I got my 2x500GB, but no SATA card.
I got my 2x512MB sticks today and put them in.

I've already set up VMware 5.0 with an XP session for my gf. I'm going to set up a OSX session on it too. maybe then I will turn off my G4 (400Mhz) that I never use.

Its a 17" Ultrasharp widescreen UXGA display with truelife. The highest it goes is 1680x1050. I wish I didnt jew out and go with the cheaper one

I have the 12.1 WXVGA 700m from dell and the monitor looks so nice and slick.

who would have figured, my CPU is over heating constantly now!

so tempted

ok... I'm looking to replace the mother board and cpu with something a lot lower in power... though I might just get a new case and let carina have this computer.

pentium m 2.0 GHz

eh... forget that.
PC3200 DDR400 memory = $81
mother board = $100
CPU = $250
case = $$$
I'm just going to keep 20 fans on this computer and let it die

Is that the computer Carina bought you back in 04?

no, that's a laptop
