what kind of computer do you own?

[VioletSkye]

Heh, I had a TI-99/4A back in the day as well. Loved the tape recorder backup lol

Used to play Parsec and Munchman a lot. (I think the name was Munchman anyway.)

And btw, you're seeing that correctly, this bad boy has both a 3 1/2" AND a 5 1/4" Floppy drive with 640K RAM and a Dot Matrix printer

hmm... I always heard calculators from the eighty's were a bit on the large size.

that kind of computer was the first my family had!

An Hp.
I don't really want to post the specs, considering it'd be stone age to you people. >_>

only thing worth mentioning is the ATI Radeon Xpress 200 series,[/ancient] as no one apparently has heard of it.

[VioletSkye]

Actually the Xpress 200 is a pretty common chipset. I have that in one of my laptops and it's actually a decent chipset

Dell XPS 420 - Core 2 Duo 1.86, 4 gigs RAM, 250 gb hard drive, 512mb Nividia Geforce 8600, ATI TV tuner, Windows XP Media Center Edition, keyboard, speakers, mouse and a monitor.

a piece of shit

Mine's a Dell XPS 410 model, a little over a year old now. It has a 2.4 Ghz Intel dual-core processor, 2 gigs of RAM, 256 MB Nvidia GeForce 8600 (I think), Windows XP Media Center Edition, and a bunch of random ports for memory cards, USB, Firewire, etc. And then, I have my Bose speakers (kinda need a subwoofer though), a basic keyboard, optical mouse, and my sexy 20" widescreen flat panel monitor. :3 I also have a printer and scanner, but they're old as junk and I hardly ever use em...

ASUS G1S laptop.

Intel Core 2 Duo (2.0 GHz), nVidia GeForce 8600m GT (1024MB - yes, you're reading that right), 2GB RAM. Oh, and a nice and pristine 1680x1050 display.

For a laptop, it's pretty snazzy (especially with the price I got on it). Oh, and it also has blinking cancer lights on the two sides of the monitor, that blink whenever Direct X is on - thereby giving people sitting next to me doses of radiation.

Only 512MB is actually VRAM, the other 512MB is just dedicated system memory (TurboCache.) There is no version of the 8600M that has 1GB of VRAM. Still, it's a decent card and not bad when it comes to low-mid range gaming on a laptop
