286??? I though he was using a commodore 64 :)


:)

[mdwatts]

Actually I think it's a VIC-20. Whopping 5k memory. :D

Shouldn't laugh myself as the VIC-20 was my first home computer. I spend more money on the vic and the peripherals than I could on a highend system these days.

Next I had the 64 and then the big step to a Commodore PC-20 (XT-640k-2x5 1/4-20mb hd) and then got hooked on 'PC's'. Then came the 386-33 (I was the bigshot at work having that at home). I actually still have the mid-tower case for the 386 as I had upgraded to a couple of different 486 motherboards and it still works as far as I know though the power supply was getting a little noisy.

I spent $450 Cdn for a ATI VGA Wonder with 256k memory and then another $100 to add another 256k for a grand total of 512k ( 1/2 meg ) and then another $850 for a NEC Multisync 15" monitor. My current 22" cost less than that. All this for my brand spanking new 386 (it came with a green monochrome monitor) and then another 4 mb for a total of 5 mb so I could run Windows 3.0 in 386 enhanced mode.

Oh the money I've spent though I wouldn't have the job I have today unless I had spent the money to teach myself the wonderful world of computers.

[z0mbix]

My first computer was a commodore 128. I loved that machine - The games were excellent. Then I moved onto macs for the next 6 years until using windows 3.1 when I got my first job.

I am still amazed at how fast this thing flys. For something that is so old (think GeForce 1, before the GeForece 2) it creams anyone elses video card. I can clock in at 120fps in Quake3 in 1024x768 with ALL the pretties turned on, albiet in 16bpp not 32. This card has done me well, I've had no real reason to upgrade :D

I'll be sure to let you guys now when I get rid of it. I'm thinking of getting me a top of the line GeForce3 soon, just so I can have those "extra pretties" :D

All the money we save using Linux instead of that other os, we spend on our hardware. :)

Another good reason to not use M$.

You'll find most of the newer distros have roughly the same hardware requirements as Win2000.

Hena... Nice set of hardware you have. Do you also have a home pc?

Well, yes. But the thing is that i use that for playing, web browsing and writing mainly... win2k is running there :p I'm waiting very eagerly that staroffice6 final release, though. Unfortunately i dont have enough money to buy myself another machine to run linux (i'd like to try the intresting sorcerer linux, can't do that at work :)).

If you do a default desktop install maybe. The power of Linux is that you can customize your install and run a new distro on pretty much any hardware.

Uhh.. I run linux on the 600mhz box that I mentioned. :p
And I find it more than adequate for running: 2 x sessions, 1 kde, browsing, email, games, several vim sessions, etc.
I guess I just don't see the point in more speed, 500mhz even is enough to do just about anything and with pretty good speed. I prefer to spend my money on hardware that really improves my computing experience -- optical mouse, happy hacker keyboard, 2nd display, glare-free workstation/monitor light, etc.

As far as distros requiring same specs as windows 2k.. win2k sysreqs:133mhz 64ram

Hena... I just installed Sorcerer a few days ago. Gotta read the docs first though as I tried a few commands and ended up reinstalling and compiling ALL the packages again including X4.2. Just sat on the sofa and pressed enter after each one. Took hours and hours. Mike... RTFM.

slacker_x... For a workstation install of the newer distros using KDE or Gnome, I believe the requirements would be the same as W2K. Some figure you can install i.e. Redhat 7.2 or Mandrake 8.1 on a 486 or low end Pentium.

kuber... A 600Mhz is more than enough for W2K, would it not be? Try running W2K on a P133 and 64mb.

Next time I'll keep my mouth shut. ;)

-30GB ATA-100 IBM HDD
-Pioneer 16x40 tray load DVD drive
-Sound Blaster 256LIVE!
-Realtek 10/100 NIC (not sure of specific brand, and I don't really care, but it does have a "Macsense" sticker on it!)
-eVGA GeForce 2 MX 400 64MB AGP w/TV Out

Some guy in my office just walked in yesterdy and handed me a pentium 166 with mobo - heh...new firewall/gateway :D

[ScRapZ_1]

Some guy (well, my boss actually) handed me 4 celeron 333a boxes, 6 pentium boxes, a hub, and about 5 486 mobos and said "Get rid of this..." :D

I've now got a HTTP server, FTP server, gateway/router, 2 'test' boxes, and I'm thinking of setting up a mail server :D

I love freebies...

TTFN,
