- What kind of computer do you have? (Mac, iBook, Dell, etc.)
Both the server and games PC are hand-built; the laptop is a Dell. - How old is it? Are you happy with it?
Server: originally purchased in 2001 but it’s had a few major upgrades since then
Games PC: 2002, but also has had major upgrades
Laptop: we bought it in 2002 - How many computers are in your household? (at home if you are away at school)
Errrr, three. - What are your favorite games/timewasters on your computer?
Games: official Formula1 game (2000) or Civilization2
Timewasters: LiveJournal and my new blog; generally messing around with techie stuff - If money were no object, what kind of computer would you like to have?
I’d add a new Mac, because I’ve not really used once since the LISA back in the 80s.
An old Sun SPARC “pizza box” (a classic!) and a new Sun machine
I’d track down my old Memotech MTX512 … the first computer I owned
The three existing machines would get major upgrades (or replaced by bigger+better equivalents)
Chuck in the new Xbox360, for Halo/Halo2
And lastly a massive blade server with terrabyte storage, just because money’s no object!
