Do you live with your parents AND your fiancee?

Until April 1st, yes... (When we get our house)

But even then - They are my computers... parents dont use them enough/know enough about them to care... My hardware setup for them to use for email and stuff...

None.

I write out my posts, put them in a small barrel which gets strapped under the neck of a 220# St. Bernard and he runs to the TV station and the weatherman reads the stuff and posts it. :)

1 iMac for video stuff
1 Shuttle (soon to be gone)
1 Emachine (soon to be gone)
1 frankenstein (dang this is LOUD - home biz stuff)
1 Dell X200 (for surfing on the pot)
1 Dell D810 (work)
1 IBM Netvista (will run my cutters/engravers)

The Netvista is about to replace both the shuttle and the emachine, and I'll probably set one of them up for my daughter and sell the other one or something. I have too many! And lots of parts.

These are the ones that are presently fully operational:

1. A64 gaming rig

2. XP 1700+ rig for the wife

3. XP 2500+ peltier cooled (to OC until it blows up :D)

4. Intel PIII 800 in case I need a backup when something fails in my main rig

5. Dell PowerEdge 1600SC - I'm thinking I'll put all the storage in this and serve media to every pc and tv in the house.
