PostFri Aug 06, 2004 9:43 pm    Computer Specs

I was just talking to C99, and got an idea. We can all talk about how awesome/crappy our computers are!

OK, lets follow a basic format:

Processor (speed):
RAM amount:
Hard Drive size:
CD burner (yes/no):
Other:

Now, HOW TO FIND OUT IF YOU DONT KNOW:

You can find out processor and RAM by right-clicking on My Computer, and going to properties.

To find Hard drive size, open my computer, and right click on your hard drive, go to properties.

I should hope you know if you have a CD burner or not!

No Not quite, about 20 secs if there's only one window open. But I can't complain because I am able to watch TV at the same time.
