Computer Poll

What kind of computer do you own and what are its specs?

I have a Compaq Presario 5726- p3-500, 19 gb hd, 96mb sdram, 16mb vid card, 6x dvdrom, 4x4x24 hp cdwriter, hp colorado 20gb tape drive, 17 in. monitor.

I love speed…I wanna get me a new Alienware computer. A 22" monitor would be nice too. :slight_smile:

Haven’t we done this already?

I’ll bite anyway, just because I like bragging about my computer, even though it’s getting old.
