I heard these guys are better, gaming wise anyways.

yeah, their "Fragboxes" are very good and well known, but it seems Alienware is better known, but they havnt done much recently.

Well, ... here's one ...

It runs like that

(Only kidding, took it down a few days ago for maintenance--hence the pic)

2400+, among other things. Not spanking new, but all I use it for is programming and a few 2d games. More pictures should be here.

[edit:] Resizing that image from 2048 really made it look like crap.

You're only bragging about hardware? ::sniff:: My laptop is not plagued by spyware or popups of any nature. I have removed all useless programs that eat up memory and slow down the startup process. The menu/maximize/minimize sounds are various spell sounds from Shadows of Amn. And when I turn it on, it plays Samus Aran's appearance fanfare from Metroid Prime.

I win!

Hivetyrant · 03-21-2005, 05:19 AM

Lol, ok, I admit defeat Illumina

Damn Silencer, I see your a Thermal take fan

Me too, I'll find some batteries and tak some pics at some stage of mine

I heard these guys are better, gaming wise anyways. [/QUOTE]That's as may be... but they also worked out one hell of a lot more expensive. The Alienware laptop I picked out was about $3000 IIRC, and something similiar, although probably not exactly the same was over $8000...

Nice Thoran. I have an XP2400 aswell, which I am currently typing on, and a couple of P2s. I'm trying to get my hands on a PIII for a Linux server project, just waiting on an email back.

That's quite a lot of disk space you've got there... What drives have you got in your RAID 5 machine?
