[citation][nom]processthis[/nom]I'm writing this on an ancient Dell desktop complete with Intel 82845G/GL/GE/PE/GV Graphics Controller and Pentium 4 at a whole 2.2 Ghz. Who's computer sucks now? Mine... =( *runs away crying*No, I'm not joking.[/citation]


I'm writing this on a 5 year old intel 1.5GHz Celeron M Compaq Presario C500 laptop with integrated 64mb graphics card wanna trade?

Heh... don't make me get out my grandpa's Gateway2000 with a Pentium 1 processor and a 2GB Hard Drive... 😀

Anyway, we've went from 9 to 14 pages of responses in 4 hours. I'm failing to understand how this is going to work...

I still think that this contest should rely more heavily on how often you post on other news articles instead of this one monolithic can of spam. Oh well... I guess I should just be happy that my Zalman VF3000a is arriving tomorrow in the mail from the last design contest. 😀

It's not the size of your monitor that counts! It's the motion you make to justify using a 15 inch monitor...

Correct that: 814mb HDD, 8mb RAM, 75Mhz Pentium processor.
And it still runs after all these years. Heck, it's more reliable than the system I have right now. You could put a sledgehammer through this thing and it would still putt right along...

I honestly don't know how old my computer is but my graphics are integrated with 64 MB too, though your processor is worse than mine...

Anyway, I'm sure someone with a Commodore 64 is going to come in here and one up both of us...

If it's not cheating to take a computer from somewhere else, then I'm going with one of those monstrous "computers" that runs on punch cards and is housed in a separate room. It could play Crysis. As long as Crysis was a pen and paper game you played while waiting for someone to invent a computer that WASN'T the size of, well, something really really big. An elaphant maybe?

Actually, I used to have worse computers than the one you mentioned. I'm remembering more like 8 MB of HDD space.
 
I wonder how loud the rig is? It's got 10 fans but most of them are at least 120mm from what I can tell from the pics so I guess that won't be much concern (not that I'm concerned since it's FREE). But the first thing i'd do if I win this is put in a SSD and a fan controller. The liquid cooling is a great addition in a system you can win, Thanks Toms!! =D

No, it goes "In Soviet Tom's Hardware, witty comment writes you!"
 
This is a wonderful computer. A very wonderful computer indeed. What would I do with so much processing power? Perhaps I could play three games at once with my awesome multitasking ability. All whilst writing wonderful tomshardware comments hoping to someday win a computer.

1. It's Very nice
2. It's an Intel!
3. Perhaps the fact that I made bulleted points will help me win?

P.S. Wonderful Computer!

[citation][nom]mrmoo500[/nom]last time I checked, tomshardware reviewed a lot more than hardware.[/citation]
But "Tom's General Computer and Electronics Stuff (with a touch of shae butter)" didn't sound as good.

What would you do? You wouldn't DO anything. A computer that smart makes YOU do the work.

P.S. Can your brain play Crysis?
