Just as topic says, post your PC specs. Curious as to what other 4channers have. Mine's not so great, needs some upgrading.

Starting from a cold machine, the first thing to do would be to call the
Cray engineer to start the power conditioning MG set. Next check the
cooling circuits and WACS panel on the side of the main cabinet, to see that
the power supply rails and temperature levels are normal. Working from the
MWS the engineer would then master clear the machine to initialise the
processor and IO channel logic. After this the first code would be copied
main memory and the DEAD START command issued. The first code would usually
be diagnostics to set and check the internal logic of the CPUs and memory.
This diagnostic stage was largely replaced by the boundary scan logic in
later systems.
Finally the system would be handed over to the operators for the booting of
Unicos. The Unicos boot process went like this. Firstly all the CPUs are
halted and, starting from word 0, the kernel is copied into main memory from
the OWS or support disk, along with a parameter file describing the hardware
environment, kernel parameters, disk and IOS layout. At this point CPU 0
would deadstart and run while the rest of the CPUS idled. The kernel parsed
the parameter file and used it to locate the IOSs and root partition, both
of which it would need for single user mode. Once in single user mode the
rest of boot sequence ( triggered by init 2 ) was much like most Unixs,
spawn the service demons, initialise the networks, check and mount the rest
of the file systems, spawn the console gettys.

sigh @ processor, sigh @ HD, sigh @ DVD burner (it was good for its time). Thats why I'm updating to an Athlon 64 3500+ with an SLI motherboard. Socket 939 is assumed to be later used for AMDs dual-core processing later in 2005.

~480G of space altogether, 60G of it mirror RAIDed
no burner but a regular dvd drive
my sound card (Hercules GTXP) can do 7.1 though :D
I haven't checked all 92 posts but I think in terms of raw power, I'm in the bottom five. Built this machine in 2001 and it still does everything I need so hopefully I'll get another two or three years out of it.

Try w3m (it's on SF.net) for text mode Internet browsing. Like Lynx but supports tabbing and renders frames and tables pretty nicely. Has mousing and scroll wheel support too.

I just put back the original PIII/450 cpu/motherboard that came with this, and added a 64 meg NVidia/XFX card. I still can't run any modern games, but qemu works and I can watch dvds; so I'm happy.
