 What type of computer do you own?
« Thread Started on Oct 26, 2002, 4:21pm »

I have a Dell Pentium IV, 255-meg of ram, running Win-Me. I'm told this isn't a good idea, and I've found it is quite unstable.

So what computers do you all own, and how stable are they?

This computer is my brother's, it's no way as modern as your's sounds Jim, but it has Windows ME and runs quite well.

My currently laptop is an iBook G3 at 466 MHz, with 128 MB of RAM. Although it suits my needs as far as games go for the moment, I'm looking to get a new one before the end of the year.

I'm running OS 9.2 at present, and crashes are extremely rare (we're talking one a month at most here). When I get my new computer, it will probably be loaded with Jaguar, AKA OS X.2.

It's a load of various stuff put into a case - twin P3's I think.

Currently running W2000 with a threatened upgrade to XP...

Generic PII 300 with 192 MB RAM running Win98

Once I implemented an external modem, getting rid of an internal WinModem I went from two crashes a day to about 1 a month.
