Currently I have 4 working PCs, and an old non working PC that I need to fix so I can give it away ...

1 Main Linux Box (currently Mandrake, I have been busy, haven't had a chance to install Slack on it, though I plan on it. I guess the saying "if it aint broke, don't fix it" comes to play ... Gateway, Server, and my IRCing Box ... I hate windows IRC clients BX all the way!
2 Win2k Box ... Mostly surfing the web and gaming
3 Secondary Box ... Dual Boot between Slack and Win2k .. Spare Gaming Rig ... and also box I use to VPN into work
4 Laptop ... Win2k and Mandrake Dual Boot
5 Old PPRO box that sits on the floor of my living room ... Once I get it up and running, I'll give it away to someone who needs a PC, or someone who needs to upgrade from a 486.

I've got 3 desktops and a laptop.. Didn't realize I had to much... Then it's nothing compared with other folks.
