Profile Information
- What kind of geek are you?
- I Like alot of technology, But i am just as normal as everyone else is. I honestly think were all geeky about something, their is no true definition of GEEK, if their was i'd say "GEEK OF LIFE" Right?
- Why do you consider yourself a geek?
- If you seen me, you might not think i am, neither do i usually, but i enjoy things that are (just a few of them) Considered geeky
- How did you find out about our Geek community?
- Youtube
- What are your "geeky equipment" specs?
- Current Laptop
Intel core i3-370M 2.4ghz 3MB L3 Cache Dual-Core
Windows 7 Home premium 64-bit
4GB DDR3 800mhz
500GB Western Digital 5200RPM 16MB Cache
ATI Radeon 5650 1GB DDR3
Runs Most games on 1280x720 to the max resolution of 1366x768 Pretty good on medium settings at the least, I've been able to run most titles on High settings, with some of the more demanding at medium obviously. Although this is not really a gaming computer it is still decently Specc'd and the dedicated graphics help boos the aging dual core's ability.
Desktop towers
Tower #1 Is current as of January 8th 2013, Under Construction
And Being Custom Built, Expected to be ready at the end of the month. It's Current specs will be posted in a Blog, and on here when i have it along with Photos.
Tower #2 Is my mother's computer
It is a Dell inspiron 560 Purchased 2-3 years ago
It is a SLim model series tower
With windows 7 Home premium 64-bit
4GB DDR3 1066 (should be capable of up to 8GB)
500gb hard drive, don't know much else about it
Intel Pentium Dual core E5700 2.8Ghz (Pretty Viable still)
Intel X4500HD With HDMI. (does the job for her facebook stuff)
This computer is unlikely to see upgrade, instead by the time it is to slow for her useage it will probably just be replaced with another Dell computer, or a very cheap custom build, As neither of us like laptop's or the way the industry is moving lately. may consider a core 2 quad and the max 8GB ram to prolong the computer further if price is worth it. Very solid Reliable Dell computer, With No problems to date.
tower #3 Is the Parents old computer, purchases Spring 2003 with 3 Years Extra warranty on top of manufacturers 1 year.
Amd Athlon ??? 2.2Ghz Single Core Processor
512 MB DDR1 233mhz (Max support is 2GB DDR 1 333)
Dont even know what the onboard video chipset is
Windows XP Home premium.
We are giving the computer away to someone who just uses the Internet to play around on facebook, check her email, that's about it. I don't even recommend it for that, but to my knowledge i may throw Linux on it or do something else to make it function the task better like more ram or w/e if Cheap enough. This computer is a 10 year old HP Pavillion that after 4 years Went through it's first motherboard, witch is very common between 2-4 years for most computers these days. It was replaced under warranty 2 days after it had expired, Way to go HP!. The Mobo Choice replaced another High five, is an Older AsusTek Motherboard (known as Asus today) and it has worked flawlessly since, however after a power supply failure 2-3 years ago the computer has not been used since as the parent bought a new one, I salvaged a power supply from a dead tower i got rid of shortly after for scrap, and the computer works fine now, just isn't used, Was sparingly for a month while my laptop was being repaired, slow but kept me online, reliable indeed.

Well there ugo, make a few bucks. The only other thing I miss in 8 is the Aero Glass, I'm sure somebody will come up with a plugin for that too. Prolly Stardock.

Well, good to hear on your adapter problems. Some pretty flimsy ones have been made in the past, IDK what they were thinking. At least these days they have beefed them up more, but they are still too stupid to make a 90 degree right angle connector to keep it from catching on stuff and damaging the charging socket.
Maybe you should perform surgery on that laptop case and add your own fan. ; )

That's an Apple trick, not Microsoft. You cant change ANYTHING about what Apple shoves down you throat, but you can always find work arounds for Microsoft. Get a fkn clue.. will yah?

Seems as any of the iCores are very snappy performers, much better architecture then any previous CPU's. I have the 3.4 GHz i3 in this desktop, its blazing quick, fine for gaming, no problems. I have a Dell Laptop with a core i5 M 520 that's also no slouch. Impressive chips.

Sounds like you got it goin' on. I actually like Windows 7 Home Premium 64 better then Win 7 Pro 64 after getting a chance to compare them.
I love that case, keeps chit cool.

Well Jake, I never harbor any ill feelings for anyone, that's just bad karma.
Mau has moved home to moms place. Seems to be doing well in spite of the adversity he's facing. I admire that. No matter how bad u think you have it, somebody always has it worse.
