Which computers do you guys use?

Built mine like 6 years ago

Single core P4 3.0E running at 3.7X Ghz
Asus P4P800S
2 Gig DDR4000
Gforce 7800GS AGP8X
Twin 150GB Raptors
Single 320GB Western for music/movies
530 Watt supply
Custom made case
Viewsonic 19" LCD VX900
Custom Alienware keyboard
Cheapo Logitec LX3 mouse

It's about as far as I can take this system, but it runs everything I have perfectly.
 
I have an XP VM instance on my Mac, just in case I have to run some Windows centric junk in a pinch, but other than that it's OSX all the way.

OSX is essentially a pretty GUI (Leopard) on top of a UNIX (BSD) core .. You can still get to a command prompt (bash, etc) and putz around..

I always had a general distaste for Mac people until I actually bought a Mac .. there is really no turning back. It's much easier and more enjoyable to use. :cheers:

I enjoy unix command prompt. now you make me want a mac. lol!
 
Commodore 64 with special-order 256K RAMPAK, VGA chip with 13" color TV, Joystick, and 2 FDD.

I'm a computa Balla!
