It doesn't have a built in keyboard ? That is kinda weird. It would be a pain to lug around a .keyboard everywhere. Heh

it has one, but as I said, I got it from my cousin, who gave it to his 3 year olds, so the builtin keyboard does not work.

:(sad.gif the 2.8GHz processor I got doesn't work. apparantly, it is a desktop processor, which uses a socket 478, where my laptop has a 479 socket. They are physically identical, but they have different pinouts. boo!
Also, my cousin gave it to his 3 yar olds, they beat on it, spilled coke, did pretty much every bad thing you could to it. The Harddrive was completely trashed when I got it, the screen is scratched, the back has big gouges in it.

Nice. You actually have better specs than my all-purpose desktop. :Ptongue.gif

Funny thing is, I never upgrade. Ever. I always recycle my old hardware and mix it with any newer hardware I might salvage from some of the trashed / abandoned PCs people give me. (I do tech support) I think my current desktop is something like:

 - 20 year old mid-tower case (woo!)
 - Sempron 1.6 GHz processor (relatively new)
 - ATI Radeon 128 MB ATI graphics card (relatively new)
 - 80 GB HD primary, 30 GB and 20 GB slave (some old, some new)
 - some old generic DVD-ROM drive, and an HP CD-Writer Plus (16x max, I think)
 - 256 MB DDR RAM (sort of new)

My first computer was a Micron PC Millenia Edition with 64 MB RAM, 4 MB integrated graphics chip, 20 GB HD, 700 MHz Celeron and a generic CD-ROM. I upgraded it to 512 MB RAM, 30 GB HD, 650 MHz P3, (which is actually much faster than a 700 MHz Celeron) threw in an old Voodoo graphics card and a SoundBlaster 16. I gave it to a needy friend who didn't have a PC at the time. :Ptongue.gif

Ah, but I never forgot about it. I wonder how many other people remember their first computer.
