Computers - whatcha running?

Post by CelticCat » Thu Feb 02, 2006 5:31 pm

Just curious what kind of computers everyone in Cat land is running.

I just bought my AMD X2 3800+ Dual Core, I'm liking it. :)

LOL...I have a Dell too! The most important features are 1GB of RAM, a cable card and a 19" screen. That way I can watch TV, play online poker and post on BobcatNation at the same time. Bummer is I spend to much time at work! :D

I have several, but I'm not computer savvy either. As long as they run ACad and my other softwares I'm fine. This one is an HP, P4, 2.8, can't remember how much RAM, huge hard drive, 17" flat screen- other than that it's blue & grey.

well for a girl that was full member of medical honor society at MSU I sure can't spell worth a darn! :oops:

I think I'm the least tech SAVVY on the board. I hate these things! as long as they turn on, the keyboard works and i can surf the net, post of BN and redesign my home/landscaping with it - I guess it's a good PC. :D

Apple G5 tower. Best darn computer I have ever worked on. Recently I ran a a spyware and a virus check. The demo software found 0. Thats right pc users 0 spyware and 0 viruses. I do not have any protection software and my computer is over 2 years old.

I believe in buying the best. Apple is the best computer.

I'm on a Dell Inspiron Laptop 600m. It's pretty functional from my grad school needs. Too bad that in the last year or so that I've had it I've scratched the crap out of it. I like to think of them as proof I'm getting through school.

A laptop that says Compaq on it. My husband is the computer geek, I just check email and play online.

Ah, it's printed by the keyboard when I open it up (I have it on a wireless dock now). It's a Dell Latitude 610. Standard corporate issue.

I have a Dell Inspiron 6000, which has a nice wide screen. It has 80GB on the hard drive. Dells are OK, really. However, since I got it this summer (to replace a 9 year old computer, no less) I've discovered several new, fun things, most importantly BobcatNation.


GO CATS!
