Sorry for the low resolution images. My sony camera is dead and I can't find the power adapter... Sony Clie to the rescue. The links are for comparison photos. Most of the parts are things I had lying around, but the new stuff I bought recently either online or at my recent foray into ComputerFest last month. :)

The notebook is a Compaq Presario V2000 (2031 I think). It's got a Turion 64 processor in it with a gig of ram and a 100GB 5400RPM Seagate hard drive... It has a Radeon x300 128meg graphics card as well... It's a sweet little system. Only weighs about 4.5 lbs and it lasts about 5 hours off battery. :D

So yeah... Post your stuff. :)

This is a huge upgrade for me. I have another crazy box that I never use at all because I don't want to put it on the internet. I've also noticed a considerable drop in my energy bills since I stopped having it even plugged in to play games. The box this tower replaced was an athlon xp 2400+ with 1GB of 2100 and a radeon 9600xt. *shrug*

Nice; my family used to have an old Atari 520ST... pretty similar except the processor ran at 8 Mhz and it had 512 kb of RAM... oh, and 16 colour graphics. And it had a 3 1/4 floppy and no tape drive. So maybe not so similar... but the processor was a 68000 series as well. Ah, remember the days of computers booting up quickly because the OS was on ROM chips...
