Everyone I know assumed that no one needed them anymore, and I was left out all along.

I have a P4 1.6ghz, 256 RAM and a fucking geForce4MX420. I want a new one. My old one was really crappy. Like Pentium 1, 200MHZ, 32MB RAM, no GFX card. It couldn't run The Sims.

--- Quote from: Switchblade ---Man, is it wrong that I'm running a Pentium 4 3.4 Ghz, with half a terabyte of hard disk space, a gig of RAM, and a 256Mb Radeon X300 graphics card, and I'm not satisfied?
...It's wrong, isn't it...?
My desire to be up to rec. spec. for X3 Reunion is an unholy sin....

heh, well it depend on how well you can run Windows XP, my 2GB RAM, 3.40GHz DELL is still bloody fast, I don't have any anti-virus clogging the system, just an decent firewall.
keep your computer in shape (OS wise) and you'll see a speed increase.

I'm typing this on a ThinkPad T23...PIII 1.1GHz, 128mb RAM, Win2000Pro. Crappy, perhaps, but completely bereft of bloatware and bloody brilliant for surfing the web or typing shiz.

one would said that if you increase the RAM in your ThinkPad, you'll see a much speedier return and believe me, it'll be worth it.
512mb will feel like lighting speed in comparison to 128MB.
what annoyed me is that some old laptop from 2001 or summat has a motherboard that only max to 256mb, really bother me a lots.
I'm so glad I can able to max my Pismo to 1GB, more than the old 512MB ram max.
--- Quote from: Luke C ---My PC isnt too crappy save for the fact my graphics died so Im using my ye olde backup for now.
I do have a totally awesome Win 95 laptop in my room. I use it cos its got Word 95. Word 95 is amazingly fast because there is no uber-freaking-sucky bloatware.

you're quite right, I have OS 9 running in my G4 PowerMac at work instead of OS X, and the result was unbelievably fast, Word 6 open faster than a prostitute's leg, and running Photoshop was smooth.
that if you don't do muilt-task, if you run more than two application, OS 9 won't like that.
AlkalineJoe:
Just to annoy you all, here's mine:
2 GB RAM, 200 GB HD, AMD Athlon 64 3200+ processor, Radeon X300 128 mb graphics card (say nothing, i'm getting a new one soon), DVD drive and writer :)
Sorry about that
