Major Computer Operation!

Monday, Nov. 22, 2004, 5:54 p.m.

The O level's are over!! I know, I know... its already the 22nd, so why did I take so long to announce this? Well, As soon as the Os were over, I started to fix with all the PCs at home.

Here are the 3 PCs before:

Dan's PC:
Intel Pentium III (1.16ghz)
40gb + 10gb Hard Drive
256mb SDRAM
PCI Inno3D NVidia GeForce 2 MX400 64mb Graphics Card
Integrated Intel Extreme Graphics
12x CDRW Drive
40x CDROM drive
3-port Firewire Card

Grandma's PC:
Intel Pentium 4 (1.8ghz)
40gb Hard Drive
256mb DDR SDRAM
AGP NVidia GeForce 2 MX400 64mb Graphics Card
12x CDRW Drive

Mom and sis' PC:
Intel Pentium III (450mhz)
30gb + 356mb Hard Drive
128mb SDRAM
AGP Creative NVidia Riva TNT 16mb Graphics Card
5x DVDROM Drive

A P4 computer with an AGP graphics card to surf the net and play solitiare is an overkill, don't you think? So after talking to my dad, and some new parts later, here's what I've got:

Dan, Sis, and Mom's PC (Completed):
Pentium 4 (1.8ghz)
40gb + 120gb Hard Drive
256 DDR RAM
AGP Inno3D NVidia GeForceFX 5500 256mb Graphics Card
12x CDRW Drive
40x CDROM drive
3-port Firewire Card
*This PC now has Dual Boot Support running on Windows XP Home Edition for both boots thanks to PowerQuest's BootMagic

Grandma's PC (50% Complete):
Intel Pentium III (1.16ghz)
40gb Hard Drive
128mb SDRAM
PCI Inno3D NVidia GeForce 2 MX400 64mb Graphics Card
Integrated Intel Extreme Graphics
12x CDRW Drive

Living Room Media PC (80% Complete):
Intel Pentium III (450mhz)
30gb + 10gb Hard Drive
256 SDRAM
AGP NVidia Geforce 2 MX400 64mb Graphics Card
5x DVDROM Drive

Grandma doesn't really need so much power, and its upgradable too, unlike my old PC. That's why we swopped PCs. Its cheaper than building a new com... (S$1000+ vs S$278) Yep. Okay, I'm of to continue with the PCs.
