Why 2?

Because I can assign a task to one and continue to use the computer on the other. I only have a few fully multithreaded applications, but the ability to set up something to render for 6 days and still be able to play Battlefield 1942 is pretty sweet, and much cheaper than getting another computer.

I already have the other components, this is just an upgrade to replace my burned out motherboard...

Video: Radeon 9700 Pro
Memory: 1.25GB PC-2100 Registered ECC
Harddrives: 18.3GB 10K SCSI 160, 80GB 7.2K PATA
Case: Codegen S-201 (http://www.pobox.com/~chaotic42/case.html)
Sound: Turtle Beach Santa Cruz
SCSI: LSI U160 64-bit/66MHz Host Adapter
DVD: 16x Pioneer slot load
CD-RW: TDK 40x12x48
Monitor: 19" Viewsonic P95f CRT

It's not luck, it's the fun part of being an adult. ;)

WOW, nice specs. Wish i could afford to upgrade at the mo.

I really need to. :bandhead:

[chaotic42]

I'm having a few problems with it.

Windows and Linux both seem corrupted, and I'm having problems reinstalling Windows.

[chaotic42]

Ok, I got it fixed.

My IDE hard drive didn't like where it was on the cable. :D

This thing kicks some butt at Folding@Home.

Yeah, it's working well. I'm just having problems getting wireless networking to work with Debian. It just can't see my card, even though it's documented to work with Linux.

[Caged Anger]

I've heard people really have to be careful with wireless. Unless they do the proper encripting, people can drive by and access yur net service. What a freaky thing :unsure: :blink:

[chaotic42]

I've never been a big fan of wireless networking, but you have to do what you have to do.
