I busted mine. Right now I'm on a 400Mhz PII w/ a Viper 330. I pimped it out though 🙂. I had some spare RAM, so it has 256Mb SDR (instead of the 64Mb) and I put my Audigy in it (instead of the no sound card).

Yeah... crappy.
 
no sound card. ATI Rage 8mb onboard. 466mhz stock celly. 256mb pc100 ram.3-4-4-8.zip drive(internal is broken. so is floppy drive. cdrom drive still works though. posting on it is so slow compared to my broken, out for 2 weeks amd64. i wish hp would hurry up ficing my pc.

woah, i forgot all about them. i had a pI packard bell taht i forgot the bios pass to so it would never start up. cannibalized the HDD for a linux dual boot setup on this pc im typing on right now.(the crappy one)
 
For a while when my hard drive was on RMA, I was using my friend's Pentium 133 laptop with 48 MB of RAM and like a 600 MB Hard Drive.
 
I'm connected to my work PC via remote desktop. It's a Dell PII 333Mhz with 384mb of ram and a 8GB hard drive. I'm still amazed that it runs WinXP Pro.

You've got me beat.
 
I sold my nf7s + xp-m 2500 to pay for my car. Now I'm running...a computer that is crappier than ones in elementary school

Worst I own is some really old Pentium 233MHz MMX system with 64MB of RAM (although I think I may have upgraded it to 128MB). Worked the last time I tried it (was installing some linux distro...can't really remember anymore).

Ha! crappiest computer...VeggieFrog has an old emachine 900MHz that she will not let me get rid of. And the b/f has a machine that is so old, it was upgraded to win 95!!!

I have a nice laptop that I got for a great deal from a fellow board member and my main system is in my sig under MAIN SQUEEZE. I like that one a LOT!

HAH!!

funny thing is... that is a lot like the comuter i bought in 1996 when i returned to the USA fro the UK. It was a Gateway... and I paid $2,600 for it. The 166 just came out and the kid at Gateway told me that I would never need the 166.

But how many of you are actually USING it as your primary computer? I've got plenty of junk parts to build a crappy machine, but my primary machine is:

Athlon 950Mhz (upgraded from Duron 950Mhz), 512MB RAM, TNT2 graphics, onboard sound, 200GB (160+40) HD, 52x CDRW, DVD-ROM, 16X DVDRW. Basically, some decent parts slapped with some old hardware. I don't have a better machine.
