In other words you have a "classic" pc.

[garba]

I have this athlonxp 2500+ which runs rock solid at 3200+ (220x10MHz) with an OEM fan cooler running at 2000RPM (gotta love this /sys/bus/i2c thing!!!), an old radeon 8500, 512MB or RAM, 2 seagate disks... pretty common stuff, and I'll be happily sticking with it for the next uhm ten years at least :)

[dsjas297]

P3 1Ghz
256 MB RAM

One of the reasons I really like Ubuntu (and Linux systems) in general is that even though they function much better than XP, they can still run fairly well on sytems like mine.

I'm sure they love the free advertising (http://yahoo.businessweek.com/technology/content/nov2005/tc20051118_333155.htm) as well. I've found other retailers who offer comprarable prices (e.g. Page Computers (http://newsite.pagecomputers.com/store/Default.asp), Provantage (http://www.provantage.com/), Buy.com (http://www.buy.com), to name a few). Newegg's blg plus is the consumer ratings/comments area for each product they sell.

Unfortunatly they are part of the same company (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newegg) who owns ABS Computers (http://www.labbb.org/BBBWeb/Forms/Business/CompanyReportPage_Expository.aspx?CompanyID=920023 02). I bought my current PC from ABS. (http://www.labbb.org/BBBWeb/Forms/Business/CompanyReportPage_Expository.aspx?CompanyID=920023 02) And to put it briefly, I will never buy from them again (http://tinyurl.com/a72bl).

Therefore I have no desire to support their company in any way. They stink.

Watercooling sounds nice, but I've often thought things could get really ugly if something sprung a lieak. :-)

There's been a couple recent upgrades. My Ubuntu box is now:

1 - ASRock 939Dual-SATA2 Mainboard
4 - Samsung 256MB PC3200 RAM
1 - Athlon 64 3500+ Venice

[Zerocool10482]

I'm thinking of getting a bigger hard drive. But I think 100 SATA?

Here are the system specs when I originally bought the computer 2 months ago:

AMD Sempron
onboard sound

No operating system
Cost: $180.00

1 x CD-R/RW drive
1 x DVD-+R/RW dual layer drive
still use onboard sound as I am hearing impaired and don't care about sound
still use onboard LAN
nVidia GeForce 6200 OC video card
Ubuntu 5.10 installed as the operating system

This is basically my blow-up box. If I blow it up, I don't care :) Thus, I tend to experiment with potentially Bad Things (TM). I do use it for audio, video, and gaming. Primarily focusing on feasibility (for me) of ditching Windows completely.

Multibooting Win Xp/ Ubuntu/ Simply Mepis/ Kanotix/ PcLinuxOS/ Knoppix (Variety is the spice of life! Using mostly Ubuntu though.)

It's old, it's had many bits added to it to get it up to those specs but it
was free! My Mom's workplace raffled off some of their outdated computers to the staff, and since she didn't need it she gave it to me.
Outdated though it is I could never afford to buy a new computer so I love my dinosaur!

[Teroedni]

I have a Blue & White PowerMac:

G3 300MHz
320 M RAM
6 G Master drive, 20 G docs & music drive
ATI Rage 128
Ugly 15" monitor I found in my dorm

Not the most amazing machine ever, but It runs Inkscape and plays rocketboom h264s with vlc.

I always wanted the blue and white Powermac
Still loooking for a cheap one, but most apple fans know their worth of this machine so i cant find any below 150$
Your machine have aso got very much ram:)

[psychicdragon]

Yeah, those PowerMacs were pretty pimp. I used to work with them in Film Production class back in high school. At the time they blew away any PC I had ever used.

The PC I've been using for the last couple of years is:

Pentium III 1 Ghz
1 GB of SDRAM
60 GB Hard Drive
Nvidia GeForce2 64 MB
A really old CD-R drive
17" ViewSonic monitor.

[MetalMusicAddict]

Heres some of the new server Im workin on. I removed 2 5" and floppy drive bays to add more HD space. I have 5 now but I will add 2 more when they get back from RMA.
I also added a second front 120mm fan (still need to install the exhaust one). I also have round IDE cables comming.

In the end this is WAY more power than my home server needs to be. My old 950mhz AMD went up (mobo actually) so when I got new cheap parts it was still alot of power.
If anyone wants to know the parts Ill edit this post.

The Ubuntu sticker came from the official .EPS. Its vinyl like car graffix. I work at a sign shop so I made it and some more (smaller) to go on cars and laptops.
If you want to do this you can take the .EPS to any sign shop like "Fast Signs" or "Signs By Tomorrow" and get 'em cut pretty cheap.

Some Highpoint RAID card, the exact model of which I forget.
2 x 160Gb Seagate SATA hard drive
2 x 250Gb Seagate SATA hard drive
Plextor PX-720A
Some DVD-ROM drive that I can't remember the model or brand of.

I'll probably add a PX-760SA as my burner, use the 720A for reading only and use the generic DVD-ROM for some other computer, everything else can wait for now but I'll definitely replace the CPU with an AMD64 and the X800 with something in PCI-E by nVidia, which will obviously mean getting a new motherboard. Wouldn't mind one of those modular PSUs, but that's obviously not top priority.

Apart from that I have a couple older machines kicking about, and a few incomplete pieces of kit.

I am jealous. I want a 7800 GT and a Athlon X2. Actually I plan to get a X2 in a few months then I can start saving to replace my 6600 GT. I won't complain too much because my Athlon 64 3200 clocked at 2.2 Gigs is pretty fast, for a single core. ;)

See my sig... built it myself a few weeks ago. Ran a large optimization problem the other day (in Fortran), one of the two cores was working 100% for an hour or so (they were alternating every few minutes), while the other one allowed me to use the computer for other tasks as if nothing else happened... I was so impressed!

Desktop
Compaq 5184
AMD K6-2 350 Mhz
upgraded the hardrive from 4 gb to 30gb a couple of years ago.
Upgraded the ram from 64 mb to 194mb
It has a dvd rom drive.
Dsl connection to the internet.
It dual boots xubuntu and Windows 98.
I use this for email, the internet, writing, and some gaming.

Laptop
Dell Latitude xpi
Pentium I 100 mhz
1 gb hardrive
16 mb of ram upgradable to 32.
no cd-rom, only a floppy drive.
I use Tiny Linux.
It has a proxim ranglanDS wirless card.
I use this for writing the internet and some email.

I recently aquired an external cdromdrive so I am thinking of installing the extra 32 mb and installing feather linux (http://featherlinux.berlios.de).

I also use a home made from scrap parts, pentium 166 mmx at my parents house.
It has 64 mb of memory, a cdrom and a 4 gb hardrive.
I use feather on this machine.

Anyone, want to send me their thowaways, or contribute to my new computer fund? (https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr)](*,)

Aye i will do, however i dont expect to have it anytime soon, Very expensive to build that one will be, wanting to use an athlon FX57, apprently it has a good overclocking potential, and to do that it means watercooling, which is expensive. I think this system will be more end of year tbh with you. Or atleast 3-5months. Its the system i wished i build last year instead of ^^^system2. Which i might sell on ebay to generate some of the cash for the new one. (Counterstrike will never have had it so good :D)

Well your practically taken 1.2 ghz leap.... it will offer some improvement, but generally (with experience from celerons, id leave that core behind and either wait for intels new preslor core, or buy a prescott 3.0+ghz, that will offer a more significant improvement, Now your video card the old days back in GF4, go for the 6800, that offers a major jump in terms of video power, however ask your self do you play games on ur linux machine?... do you need to have a powerfuller card?......

The ltsp client's MB supported speed maxes out at 300Mhz with a 4.5 multiplier @ 66Mhz but the jumpers allow the FSB to be maxed out at 83Mhz. Since the processor and memory is designed for a 100Mhz bus the chipset is the only thing that is really OC'ed. This baby hasn't locked up yet...except for that time i unplugged the HDD when it was on. hey the hdd is the only moving part in this guy and only makes noise during r/w operations.

I built all of these machines with the exception of the laptop obviously, but I have upgraded the ram and replaced the keyboard on it. Handy for its mobility. I built the gaming rig a few months before Doom 3 came out. It was pretty high end in its day. I was dual booting Ubuntu on the gaming machine but could not get the 9800 pro to work with Ubuntu... and believe me, I tried! I built the Ubuntu rig out of spare parts I had from previous builds and picked up a few parts for it on ebay. Thats why it has such a small HDD, its what I had available. It works great and I like having the dedicated machine for Ubuntu, eventually I would like to switch them all to Ubuntu but I have lots to learn first :D . I also had an old emachine with Ubuntu on it that I gave my Mom and Dad for email and surfing. All four of my current machines are networked together and connected to a high speed DSL connection. I love my hobby :D ... now if I could just think of something productive to do. :)

Performance Koobox (Upgraded)

ASUS K8V-MX
300w Sparkle PSU
AMD Athlon 64 3000+
2GB Kingston Value Ram
Integrated audio
Integrated 10/100 LAN
PNY Verto GeForce 6200 256 MB AGP 8x
Evercool slot fan
Alps internal FDD
Lite-On 16x DVD+RW
Seagate 160GB HDD
17" 1280x1024 LCD monitor
Blue round IDE cables

Notes:
I wanted to install a Hauppauge tuner card and a SoundBlaster card, but with the AGP video card and the slot fan, I don't have room to install anything else. I plan to upgrade the power supply to something in the 400w-500w range and I will eventually install an AMD Athlon 64 3200+ Venice to take advantage of the faster speed and inclusion of the SSE3 instructions. For the new CPU, I am going to use the Arctic Silver Ceramique compound and a Thermaltake orb cooler. I would also like to replace the stock case fan with something that's a bit more powerful and has a blue LED (to match the blue LED on the front of the case).

Hardware support is pretty much perfect with the exception of the integrated video. This computer ships with the Via K8M800 video processor and Linux support for that GPU is atrocious, thus I upgraded to the PNY video card. Other than the integrated video, everything is detected out-of-the-box by Dapper and the video card is supported with the nvidia-glx package.
