while it's make no different to consumer user, pro user who use computer for rendering animation or encoding a video would find the celeron not enough for those task.

EDIT: It also has fairly good sound for a laptop too, some laptop speakers are pretty shocking, although these ones are impressive..

ah ha that the best part of the Toshiba, it used Harman Kardon speaker, high quality, and the best of all laptop, thought I don't like the old model where the speaker is near the hung which stick out more than an Prostitute in Henley.

Shuttle Cases are awesome.  Sure, they're trouble if you have a stack of expansion cards you can't bear to part with, and they're a spell toasty if you have a 7800 and an A64-FX2 in it, but you can't beat the form factor.  And they're pretty stable/reliable.

Can you fiddle with the multiplier settings in the BIOS config?

I, of course, don't have one.  My current ride is an Athlon XP 2800+, Radeon 9500 (minspec for Oblivion!), 768MB of DDR333; all housed in a poorly-modified circa-1998 $40 steel case.
Viewport is a 19" Iiyama VisionMaster 450, a truly amazing CRT that is unfortunately showing signs of impending doom.
I also have an IBM (oldschool, in other words) Thinkpad T23, refurbished.  1.2Ghz PIII, 128mb RAM.  Great for websurfing, typing, watching movies, running DosBox, etc.   Minimalism is a virtue sometimes.  And Thinkpads are rock solid.  I've yet to experience any problems with it.  Even ran a KANOTIX LiveCD just fine.

I would gladly upgrade if I didn't have to part with $1000 in the bargain.  On the plus side, it's a nice excuse to get an XPC.

SpacemanSpiff:
My system specs:
17" Samsung SyncMaster 171p TFT

AMD Athlon64 3000+ Venice Core cooled by a Thermalright XP-120 with a Papst 4412 F/2GLL
Asus A8V Deluxe motherboard
1GB Ram (2x512MB, Kingston)
Sapphire Radeon 9600xt Ultimate Edition (passively cooled)
Pioneer DVR-109 DVD Writer
2x200gb Seagate harddisk
ElanVital 400W psu (semi-passively cooled)
LianLi PC-6083a aluminium case

Yes, I'm somewhat obsessed with building an actively cooled, silent system.

I also have a laptop, an Acer Travelmate 292lmi. But it's nothing special, so I won't bother putting the specs here.

Bastardous Bassist:
Here's my amazing machine, the important bits:
19" LG 1980U and 17" Samsung SyncMaster 710n

It's got a mobo (clearly), but I don't know the model (I think it's an Asus).  It's also got a DVD writer and a CD drive, but I don't know the brands or anything either.  It's an HP machine (as you can see), so I didn't pick it out or anything.

1GB RAM (2x512MB no-name brand)
ATI Radeo 9800pro
M-Audio Delta 6/6 (with Omni-Studio breakout box)
120GB Maxtor HD (HP put it in there)
160GB Seagate HD

Yeah, I'm probably going to be upgrading my computer before too long.  Hopefully work will start to pick up.  My main band is taking a couple of weeks of our weekly gig, but it doesn't pay much anyways.  I'm not getting any freelance gigs either.  *sigh*  Maybe after my recital.
