[This message has been edited by MalFunkShun (edited 08-13-2001).]

You mean you can burn a DVD ? hmm.. how exactly can you do that Fig
Don't they use GDs instead of CDs?

" GDs holds a 1 gig on a disc, while most CDs only hold 700mb on a disc....." That's sounds really cool

(edit=Sorry i missed your comment MalFunkShun Yes it's very nice, I love it, but I payed too much for it)

[This message has been edited by JKMabry (edited 08-18-2001).]

JK, Now that you've mentioned kickin speakers - I hooked my sound card to Marantz PM7000 integrated amplifier which runs a set of B&W DM604 S2 speakers. That's some serious kickin! It fells almost like earthquakes, heh...

While everyone's top spec (or not) computers are interesting how about the other end of the spectrum? A friend and I managed to get a Sinclair ZX Spectrum (16k rubber keyboard) working again by pooling our resources - we may have a go at the ZX 81 soon. For specs see:
http://www.nvg.ntnu.no/sinclair/computers/zxspectrum/spec1648.htm

Anyone got an older/lower spec computer that is still functioning?

Emps

Nope, sorry.

I used to own a ZX Spectrum 48, but I traded it for my C64.

I do however have access to an old Vectrex Game console

Haven't we answered this one? I thought I had. I'll just share my two personal home computers, these are my main contacts with the world.

Macintosh G4/450 Mhz tower with 384MB RAM.
19" cheapo no-name monitor.
Generic Speakers.

Pentium Celeron 850Mhz w/ 512MB of RAM.
Nokia 447Zi 17" monitor.
GeForce2 32MB Video card.
Generic Speakers.

There's 4 other computers in the house, two broadband connections, 11 web cameras, and I have 4 more machines/servers waiting for me at work. I will not count all of the hosting machines I use, they're not mine.

Your pal, -doc-

Wow that's cool Doc. btw, before I asked about your connection type and speed...

DVD burner? I didnt know there were such things, I need to get out more or in, or whatever comes first

What other problems do you have besides being unemployed, a moron and a dork?
- - - John McEnroe (to a spectator at a tennis match)

Cactus, Dreamcast games are on GDs. DVDs are their own type of disc, and (IIRC, last I checked) they hold ~4GB.

...And you can burn both, one takes effort, the other is impossible to find media for. Try to guess which is which!

--brokensig of [peer]--

WoW Peer, that's cool to know, Thanks for the info.........



[This message has been edited by MR. CACTUS (edited 08-14-2001).]

Note to - Doc. Ozone:

I don't know how often you get a chance to read, your vast amount of e-mail you get each day... But I sent you a E-mail a few days ago..... If for some reason you didn't recieve it, Please let me know, I would be happy to resend it to you.......

Do you have another E-mail, I should send my mail to instead of doc@bugtown.com ?

I just upgraded my PC.

AMD Athlon 1GHz @ 1.333 GHz (I have 4 Case )
256MB DDR RAM (Being technologicly hip's starting to cost too bloody much!)
17" Sony Trinitron -> SUMA GeForce 2 GTS Pro 64MB DDR
15" Sony Trinitron -> Rendition V2200 8MB PCI
Muse XL
Sharp Mini Component System CD-C415 (I still don't know why they called this thing mini!)
Some kind of cannon scanner.
An old shitty little web cam that hasn?t been out of it's box in about a year now.
Still on a crappy cable connection. The pitfalls of renting: (. But I still havent payed a cent for internet access in my entire life! Yay for having friends who work in ISP's and University's IT departments! hehehe.

Actually, I don't have the 17" monitor yet but I well in a couple of weeks. I still have my crappy old Rendition 3D accelerator though lol, the infant days of 3D gaming.

I'm also thinking about modding my computer case. But not the usual things like glass panels. coloured wire tubes and neon lights. I'm thinking about something major. A chrome pyramid is my ultimate goal but I think I'll have to go with a cheaper surface finish. Most likely aluminum plates sprayed gloss black.

Oh BTW, did all you multi-monitor freaks know that the ATI Radeon R8500 per-lease has gone out and it supports multi monitors! Yay, about time a high-end gaming card had multi monitor support. There's a review at www.tomshardware.com.
