Decided to pull out all the stops for the DropSystem server, just to squeeze those extra microseconds:

hahah, I used to work for MAN B and W Engines (they make buses and generators that are bigger than blocks of flats) the place is full of engines like that heh.

My servers are in an adaptive blade box, so kinda looks like a loaf of bread

Could do with a new gfx card

Yes, but that's Babbage's "Difference Machine" - a very early analogue computer! :wink: Hits the DAC like Punch and Judy at a slugfest.

i am currently on :

HP Laptop (always use lapstops as it makes working in diff locations and on long train journeys easier)

Intel Duo Core T7300 2.0 ghz
2 gb RAM
Windows Vista
200gb HDD
200gb HDD
24" Samsung Monitor
Windows Vista (which i really like, must be the only one)

i really need an upgrade but too busy to muck around moving docs over.. maybe in the summer.

This is the box i use for Acorn.

 

[packeted]

Home built

Asus Rampage Formula Mobo
Intel Quad Code 2.83GHz
4GB Corsair Dominator RAM
2 x 640Gb WD drives in Raid 0
Asus ATI X4850
2 x Dell 22" widescreen monitors
On Vista 64 bit

Runs pretty nicely..... although to be honest my last system wasn't too far off and it lasted me 6+ years with a couple of minor upgrades along the way.. (Asus P4T533-C, 3.06GHz HT CPU, GF7800, 1GB RDRAM)

Even got an old 486 for my linux box, though that's starting to be an issue with the new distros.

For all old gear install Gentoo. True its not the easiest to install but I run KDE, Apache, PHP & MySQL on an old P133 with ease. After firing up the install, answer a few questions then walk away for the day. Unless you already know, Gentoo compiles on your hardware so will squish the most out of what little performace a machine has. Unlike other distro's that come pre-compiled thinking all 386/486/etc. machines look the same gentoo generally runs faster with its pick and mix options.

p.s.
if the machine goes online, run updates over night because they take hours to compile.

My main pc is one I built myself, can't remember the exact specs but Intel Core 2 Duo chip, 2gb RAM, about 500gb storage across 3 drives runs Vista Ultimate.

I also have a basic eeepc, removed linux and and loaded an nlite'd version of XP.

I also use my wife's laptop, Fujitsu Amilo with Centrino Duo chip. 1gb RAM.

For my job I have a HP laptop with a locked-down version of Win2000.

Plus an iPhone and an iPod touch

MacBook Pro, although 2 years old now.

Still, its an improvement from my first Mac. An LC475. I remember to this day it was a special as it came with 16meg of ram, rather than 8 megs :lol:

Can also remember my dad building our first PC. He'd bought a Spectrum zx81 kit... Soldered the whole lot together and amazingly it worked!

My dad bought me the ZX80, then later the ZX81 upgrade kit where you had to change the ROM and stick a different keyboard overlay on the old one!

Currently two Dell Vostros with twin 22" screens in the office, a 13" Sony Vaio for carting about to check email etc, an old Dell with Linux on running the Asterisk VOIP and IVR system, 2 dedicated 1&1 Windows servers for the real action, and a Mac Mini in the playroom at home for some Apple fun.

That water cooled beast above is amazing

As long as you do a 24 hour leak test its pretty reliable. TBH you can stick most pc componants under a tap if you wanted to. Obviously avoid the PSU
