Simple question.

And a side question, what is each of them running? I have two, one running Win98SE, and the other running Red Hat 7.2.

How about you?

Win2k Pro on the main rig, win98SE on the other two....if I had RedHat 7.2 I'd run that on one of the other boxes, but I'm too lazy to get a copy, and it wouldn't do me any good anyway. Only have 98 on the third machine because the TV-out on the video card won't work in 2k, and I needed the TV out to play divx movies on my TV and stereo system.

I have a walk-in closet filled with various computer parts. I call it "the graveyard". I figure if I put everything together, there'd be three of four working machines in there. At the moment, I only have one working machine that I use.

Main Machine(covered in Christian hard rock band stickers)- Dual PIII 450's, 396 MB of SDRAM, 56 GB of total HD space, 50x Pioneer CD-ROM, 4x4x32x Philips CDR, Sound Blaster 5.1 MP3+, ATI All In Wonder, Win2K
Wife's Machine-AMD Duron 800, 256 MB RAM, Sound Blaster 5.1 Live, ATI Pro, 50x Pioneer CD-ROM, Win98SE
Cross Comptuer- PII 333, 128 MB RAM, 24x Generic CDR, 50x Pioneer CD-ROM, ATI 64 bit vid card, NT Server 4.0
blue neon cold cathode mod PICS
iMac- Be gentle, I bought in college because I needed a machine quickly and cheap. Plus it came with a scanner, printer and super drive. It's one of the first ones so it has a 266 mhz Motorolla chip, 64 MB of RAM, ?? HD
Laptop-Dell Latitude, PII 350, 128 MB RAM, 10GB HD, DVD ROM

All of these are connected in a workgroup configuration across a Netgear RT314 and a Negear 4 port hub. I also have two Cisco Pro switches mounted in a rack in my closet for backup purposes. So I suppose this makes me a geek.

I'm still trying to set up stuff, but I guess at least 5 of the 8 computers which are lying around in this room work. Further there are a bunch more PC's which do work, but are not mine.

All of my PC's run Linux, except for one rig, which is running Win2k (for now).
