[Zydeco]

I got better thing to spend my money on then water cooling my compute. Lake Tahoe just got its first sonw of the winter lst night. So soon its going to be time to go snowbording again.

[w1ngzer0]

lake tahoe..... damn city people >:P

I sware thats all everyone talks about is lake tahoe blah blah

[MinisterofDOOM]

I prefer Zion's National Park and Snow Canyon and other southern Utah rock. Nothing like hanging from one hand hundreds of feet above the ground.

[w1ngzer0]

since we are just chatting tonight. I asked 3 people if they want to be roomies and everyone one of them said NO. BLARG. I will be living in my parents house forever >_<

[MinisterofDOOM]

That sucks, man. I just moved into an apartment with a friend of mine about a month ago. At first, I didn't think he wanted to move out of his parents house, so I was desperately searching for a roomy. I know how it goes.

And if you are living with your parents, it means you aren't spending however much money on an apartment ($500 a month minimum for anything but a cardboard box--mines $658). That means you can spend it on a car. Although, conversely, if I was still living with my parents, I most likely wouldn't be able to work full time.

Anyhow, I feel your pain.

Y R U UP L8?

Just keeping a watchful eye on all you freaking post whores.

[MinisterofDOOM]

Look. I don't post whore. I post PIMP!

[Zydeco]

haveing one roommate is good, but two is better, its just that much cheaper.

[MinisterofDOOM]

No. Two is company. Three's a crowd. I'd much rather pay the extra $100 than have to deal with someone else. Besides...it doesn't decrease rent. I'd need a 3 bedroom, which costs a lot more. Which means all three of us would be paying 330 a month. The individual pricing doesn't change, so it's not worth it.

[Zydeco]

I for get some time its not as expencive in the rest of the country. in the bay area it rediclous. on of my frinds pay 857 for a one bed room. I got 2 roomm mate and Im only payin 433.33 a month.

[MinisterofDOOM]

YOUR share is 422/month? Damn! My apartment is pretty small, but it's more than enough for me...a place for my bed, a place to cook, and a place for my PC, TV, game systems, etc.

[w1ngzer0]

well, i do need to move out soon. The problem with me moving out is i won't be making descent money and i will be one of the many loosers in america till im 25.

Grants open up to me when im 25, weird enough. Also just living on paychecks isn't life its called a living hell.

[Jesda]

I used to be a night dweller, but now Im back to sleeping at 9pm and rising at 4, 5, or 6am.

[gabossie]

Someones gettin old, or at least thinks he is...

lol get a real computer >:P

[Jesda]

Thats odd. My last post was blank. Oh well, it probably wasnt anything substantive anyway.

[IvoryJ30t]

oh man, you guys think those computers are slow?

im on a dinosaur from 1998 right now.

my hard drive is on the way out. i ran a speed test before, and my broadband connection is faster than my hard drive.

all i do is surf when im not fixing a computer, so it still suits me well. it just needs a new mouse and a new hard drive.

[IvoryJ30t]

i have my eye on the P4 EE, but it can wait.

i break out the laptop if i need processing power.

you just had to go there huh?....... since we are trying to see who has the slower computer, i will post my orginal computer. a 60 mhz packard bell. with 16mb of ram and 500mb of hd space running on 5400 rpm's. WHOPPY! oh and a 2x cd rom

No offense, just an observation, but WHY would you spend as much money as you did on that P4 when you could have had an Athlon 64 FX for LESS or the same price? The FX is better...especially for graphics intensive things--which I assume, seing the GeForce 6800, is the purpose of your computer. Even the EE can't match a FX.

[w1ngzer0]

fx = teh expensive.

I am getting a p4 becuase the amd's are more expensive then the p4's right now

ROFL! You wanna go there too? How about no hard drive at all with green on black monitor? Apple II+ baby. My first computer with a hard drive held all of 40MB. Anyone remember the term "clone"? Remember when "hacker" was a term of high esteem? I actually know what it's like to be completely freaking thrilled just because I didn't have to use a boot floppy to boot up my computer!

Heh. I had an Apple II...might still have it....I had dual disk drives and full ram capacity and Spy vs Spy!!!

My next oldest are my two oldest laptops. One is a pre-dos Hitachi...needs a batter. It has no hard disk. The other is a 80286 Comaq. It runs at about 12mhz and has NEARLY 2mb of hard drive space. This "Laptop" is two and a half inches thick when closed. There is a space in the center to store a full size mouse. The keyboard detaches and has fold down feet so you can use it like a desktop. There is no built in mouse.

I have a closed stacked with old computers and laptops. Most of them are franken-ized. I had an old Unix server running all sorts of parts that didn't belong. The tower was nearly three feet tall. It had dual 80486 processors with massive heat sinks and big *** fans, together almost reaching 100mhz. It had 24mb RAM. It was a Diablo LAN party MACHINE! Even had a tape drive. That one...don't remember where it went, either.

Maybe I could sell all these antiques and buy my AMD FX53. If I'm lucky, I'll win the $6000 Falcon Northwest PC that PCGamer is giving away...

[Jesda]

I dont go back much further than a 3.3MHz (or was it 2.3) Commodore Colt, with 640k ram, CGA graphics, twin-360k floppies, and an Intel 8088 CPU. It was Commodore's last-ditch effort at relevance before finally kicking the bucket -- anyone remember all the TV ads?

That was... 1988 I think. I was about 7 years old, and it was nearing obsoletion back then anyway. We took it to thailand in 1994 to give to some buddhist monks, but when we showed up they had a fully networked and modernized computer lab. They write books and do research.

That belongs in a film comedy. Or has it been parallelled in too many already?

[BadMojo]

We had one of these...



I think it ran at something like 3.25mhz.
