How about that? The Friday Five this week is about computers!!! My favorite subject!! (Other than sex!)
1. What kind of computer do you have? (Mac, iBook, Dell, etc.)
I have a computer I put together. Never have bought an entire computer. My specs are: AMD Sempron 2800+ CPU, 512 Mb DDR RAM, 160 Gb hard drive, SoundBlaster Live!, GeForce FX5200 128 Mb video card, DVD ROM, DVD Writer, 20-in-1 Card reader. (These are just in the tower). KC has an AMD Athlon 1400 CPU, 384 Mb RAM, 40 Gb hard drive, nVIDIA 16 Mb TNT video card, CD ROM, CD Writer. Yeah, I built hers from scratch too; much of it used to be my PC.
2. How old is it? Are you happy with it?
I got the most recent parts this summer. Yeah, I’m pretty happy with it.
3. How many computers are in your household? (at home if you are away at school)
Including Breezomatic’s PC (which she has at college), right now I have 5. Of course, only 3 are in working order at the present time.
4. What are your favorite games/timewasters on your computer?
Most of my “wasted time” is done by browsing the web. I do play Spider Solitaire, but it’s usually the web for me. It’s far more interesting.
5. If money were no object, what kind of computer would you like to have?
AMD Athlon64 (the fastest available), at least one gig of DDR RAM (again, the fastest available), at least a 200 Mb hard drive (maybe larger), the latest nVIDIA GeForce video card with at least 256 Mb RAM on board, a TV Tuner card interfaced with the video card, SoundBlaster Audigy, dual DVD writers, yeah, that’s the ticket.
