My computer is as follows:
Motherboard Asus P4S8X-x
CPU Intel 2800 Ghz
2 Gb Ram
Video Card Sapphire Radeon X1550 512 MB AGP
It 'a bit' old-fashioned but so far it has always done his duty.

My old computer's motherboard died on me and so I replaced the whole computer with a new Dell 620. It comes with an Intel i3 processor, 4 gigs of memory, a 500 gig hard drive and Windows 7-64 bit. Not a bad computer for $399. I was able to plug in my old hard drive and retrive most of my old...

Personally, I don't like them, too plain, too IE9.

I´ve recently instaled Windows 7 (x86) on an a bit ancient Toshiba Satellite M30 (single core 1500mhz, 512mb ram, and geforce fx go5200). Its fast and stable, besides the lack of raw power and memory. With a little tweaking i could get the Aero working (amazingly did not slow down...
