It's a Windows Vista Home Premium SP1 PC. I have a TV/Radio tuner with digital cable hookup and use windows media center to watch my tv/control my radio. I have a lexmark x8350 all in one printer. My Panasonic stereo is hooked up to it for speakers, its amazing. I have a 160GB external hard drive also. If you can see the pink ipod in the pic, it's my gfs but she lets me use it when i go out BMXing so i don't mess up my touch (2nd gen. jailbroken on 2.2.1). The phone is an LG enV2. The watch is a seiko and the keyboard and mouse are wireless. Any other questions just ask. But post em up also! Oh lol, and if you see all the artwork, my girlfriend was taking art class and had to do projects, the one behind it is melted crayons and the thing ontop of my speaker is a pottery project. The happy birthday chris is from my little brother. Just clarifying! Spyderco sharpmaker and a torx set are in the pic as well, can you find them! The little cage is from my gf, her hamster died a few weeks ago and the next day i found a baby mouse eyes and ears closed in my basement all shivering so i nursed it for a week or so and now its a month or so old. The colored pictures are from my girlfriends neices. And of course BMX posters. Ok, now that i feel like a huge dork and wrote a bunch of nonsense here is the pic.

It gets me by. :D
 
Thank ya. I didn't think I was going to be able to fill 1TB either, but oddly enough the drive is about half full already. Guess that pr0n collection is getting a bit out of hand. haha
 
PC was self built

Core 2 Quad 6600 processor
4GB Ram
750GB Hard drive
Nvidia 9600GT graphics card
2 Pioneer DVD RW Drives

Running Windows 7 64 bit version.
 
There are some nice systems here. Long ago I decided I didn't need the latest and greatest and I only upgrade when I see a big benefit. I build my own and my current config is:

Athlon 64 3200+ (2.0Ghz)
1.5 Ghz RAM
Asus Mobo
200 MB IDE HD + 150 MB SATA HD
NEC DVD/CD rw
Nvidea GeForce 6500 256MB
22" LCD monitor (non wide-screen)
XP Pro
 
My computer's some old POS that I have Linux Mint installed. Handles most tasks just fine and I can watch videos on it, so I see no need to upgrade. It'd be nice to watch flash videos fullscreen without the video skipping, but whenever I think about making some big purchase, I try to keep myself in check by using the money to buy flowers for my girlfriend.
 
Running a MacBook Pro here.

2.5 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
4 GB Ram 667MHz
NVidia GeForce 8600M GT 512MB
186.31 GB Hitachi Drive
 
How do you like windows 7? And why 64?

So far so good. Been running Windows 7 RC since it was released, primarily to to test compatibility with my existing software. Am pleasantly surprised as everything works.

When the final version is released, I will probably be building myself a new PC with lots of ram, hence the need for a 64 bit O/S.
