My college has PCs with P4 1.4s with 512MB RDRAM and Radeon 7200s. I checked the RAM stick since they had an intro class showing us what PCs are comprised of, and it said 800MHZ 45ns. (I assume all PCs are using the same model, also Elpida brands)

They're slow though, and the best one yet, I boot up fresh in the morning, starting college for the first time, and get a Maxtor warning in the DETECTING IDE POST saying SMART Failure: Hard drive failure imminent.

ROFL.

The other PCs, which are mostly reserved for my class, Multimedia Integration, have G4 Macs, Dual 1.025GHZ if I am not mistaken. Not bad, since they got the MAC OS X. But still painfully slow at rendering. It was cool seeing the inside (nice easy case design for opening fast), so damn bland! It's so neat, but in not such a nice way since it's colorless (not multicolored like recent mainboards).

It ran on a heatsink only, and the fan was a 120mm one on the other side of the case, directly blowing at it and the vid card. Not bad a cooling scheme.

Good call, you're absolutely correct. Except for one teacher, Mrs. Frampton, who tore her TNT2 out and replaced it with a 9700Pro (now THERE's a teacher!!!). She fixed it with a giggle of RAM too. Now that willie just has to go, because WILLAMETTE SUCKS.

<b>nVidia cheated on me so I left her for ATi. ATi's hotter anyway...</b>
 
shh they're not suppose to find out i go to this place lol

well my old private school have onboard Video BEAT THAT! lol and we had it for like half an year and most of the part have to be replaced due to students shutting down the comp by turning the switch behind the PS off lol

I'd get a nVidia GeForce FX 5900Ultra... if THEY WOULD CHANGE THAT #()#@ HSF
 
Ah, the Williamette wasn't such a bad performing CPU that Williamete_SUCKS thought it was. Sure it required, a hefty powersupply, not to mention a hefty supply of cash back in that day. But overall Williamette was a pretty good core.

My OS features preemptive multitasking, a fully interactive command line, & support for 640K of RAM!
