What brand?

Dan · 12-08-2007, 09:26 PM

I'm interested in what brand prevails in the PC industry.

I personally built my own, but I know most people don't do that.

**Adrastus** · 12-08-2007, 09:39 PM

what do you mean? like what kind of computers we are running?
Intel pentium 4 - 3.2 ghz
1.5 gb ram
VC : nVida 9800 Geforce GT
160 GB hard drive - dvd burners yadda yadda
I custom made mine too, didn't build it myself but i ordered parts for my friends dad to add for me.

Dan · 12-08-2007, 09:41 PM

Well, all my desktops I built .. but for people who ask, I usually steer them to Dell, HP or Acer ..

My laptops are either Dells, Toshibas, or Apple (but it runs mostly vista

)

I could bore you with the specs for hours .. but I'll just settle for my primary laptop and desktop:

Desktop - it's old, but its a champion. I have a different machine for gaming:
Intel P4 2.4ghz "C" (800mhz FSB and HT)
1gb XMS DDR400
ATI Radeon x850 Pro (256mb)
1.7TB over 7 Hard Drives

Laptop - Toshiba Satellite A135:
Intel Core Duo T2250 (1.73ghz)
1gb DDR2
Integrated Intel Graphics
120gb Hard Drive

I have a Sony desktop. It's the best computer I have ever owned.

ihax · 12-09-2007, 03:18 PM

I have a few computers, but the two I mainly use are my Mac desktop, and my laptop.

I have a sony vaio laptop that I got in April. It has a 160GB harddrive, 2GB of memory, and a 15.4" display. It has a centrino duo processor @ 1.8GHZ. It has a DVD+/RW DL drive. It has Windows Vista Home Premium

I also have a PC desktop:

Titmouse · 02-05-2008, 02:01 PM

HP comuters are the best, in my opinion, they seem much more well built than other types I have used: Acer computers are so flimsy compared.

Jason4chris · 02-06-2008, 12:40 PM

I'm not sure of all of my computers specs, but I know it has:
Pentium 4 processor
768mb of ram
30gb hard drive for windows and my applications, and another 80gb drive for files.
NVIDIA GeForce 6200oc graphics card

I added the second drive, and the extra 256mg of ram and the graphics card myself... The specs arnt that great, but its one of the better computers that I've used

Jason4chris · 02-07-2008, 01:04 AM

TreyMackenzie · 03-13-2008, 10:01 PM
