Just the Slayer, a Celeron 500! I got a 1GHz Tbird a few weeks ago. Just waiting for the MSI K7T Turbo to be released so I can complete the upgrade. :)

Well when I was at home I had three in there, A 700 T-Bird, a K6-2 300, and my 366 PIII laptop.

But in my dorm room I have just the laptop and T-Bird. Donated my K6-2 to my sister till she gets her own..

Shelves and tables litered with parts; mobo's ("most" don't work), CPU's ranging from 486-25 to P200mmx to Celeron 300a, 5 or 6 Hard drives, 4 CDROMS, Bags of memory, cases, 3 - 15" monitors not in use....

Man, I need to get rid of some of this crap! ;)

These PC's aren't really all &quot;mine,&quot; but I did build them all myself, and paid for them with my money for the lower end ones, and for some of the parts (like RAM, which I mostly bought here)....here's the list, it's kinda long....all of these comps are in my house:

My room:

1) gaming comp - p3 450 oc'd to 558 mhz, IDE RAID, geforce2 gts 64 ddr, 21&quot; monitor, racing wheel - that one is mine. Have 2nd 14&quot; monitor hooked up, too.
2) &quot;skeleton&quot; half case hp p2 333 - this is my mp3 box w/ 14&quot; monitor, onboard video, VERY quiet power supply and quiet 1 gig hdd.
3) Iopener (will sell soon...but it's still here for now anyway).

My dad's office:

4) Fileserver - this is my comp too....dual celeron 466 w/ geforce DDR/DVI 32 megs, hooked up to 3 monitors....use this for trading stocks and stuff (thus, the monitors)
5) My dad's computer - p3 500, 256 mb RAM, 4 monitors (uses for work, etc.)
6) Toshiba laptop - pentium 150 - uses along w/ digital camera while going on vacation, road trips, etc....I use it too.

My bro's room:

7) P2 400 w/ 196 mb ram, ATI RAGE furry maxx card...he uses this for games, mp3's, wutever.

My sister's room:

8) My sister's computer - pentium pro 166 w/ 64 megs of ram - she uses this for mp3's and school mostly...I was gonna sell it but decided it to give it to her. I love my sister :)

***

9) Currently not being used for anythign really....just sitting there....it's always on though - cyrix 166 w/ 14&quot; monitor. I think I had this one for the cdrom server, but then I got rid of the cdrom server so now I just have it for nothing...I guess if I break all the other computers while upgrading, this one will still be left?

Oh and I'm building #10 soon (a book PC), to be used at home, and in my car as an mp3 box, but then I'm getting rid of #1, 2 and 3 in exchange. Will also get rid of #9 sooner or later I guess....but currently....I have 9 computers in my house.

Oh ya.....you guys should see what happens when we will have a LAN party here later this month :). I got 2 8 port 10/100 baseT switches ready for like 5 or 6 more computers...it's gonna be fun :)

That's my rigs! I'm studying for cisco...so maybe after I get my CCNA, i can buy a cisco router and &quot;secretly&quot; hack a 10 mbit DSL line and hook it up to my house (currently have 144 mbit)....what do you guys think, will it work?

Dang its late, 2 AM....goodnight ppl.

I'm actually down to only three. Four if you include my GRiD pad.

Sold of the HPUX and gave away the old &quot;mint condition&quot; 386. No need to have so many PCs.

Scary is that my work PC is faster that all but one of my home PCs! :Q
