Alternative computers - what\'s in your box?
Dell Dimension 2400. (P4 2.4GHz, Win XP Home. Used for gaming, primary net access and music playing.)
Commodore Amiga A1200 Revision 1A. (68030/50MHz, 64Mb RAM upgrade, 10Gb harddrive, OS3.0. Used for everything else! And nostalgia, and making musig with ProTracker...which is possibly the most initially scary looking program ever. What had they got against menus???)
Acorn Archimedes A3000 (ARM3 Processor overdrive, 200Mb Harddisk (On a Risc system, that goes a LONG way), RiscOS 3.11. Until I got the Amiga, this was used as a word processor, and for playing Lemmings, still has the best soundcard of any machine I have. Just now, this is in a drawer, because I don't have room for it as well as the Dell and Amiga...and that I stole the floppy drive and monitor from it for the Amiga. Will get it back in service at some point though.
Also have an archimdes A410/1, but a friend has posession of that machine just now.
I'm afraid that the major gap in my collection in that I do not posess a single Mac. I did have an old Macintosh Classic II, but that was taken out by the lightning strike that also took out my Atari ST 520E, Amiga 1000 and C64. Felt really cheated by that, Had everything unplugged apart from an old 386, and it got hit, and zapped everything else via the network cables...D'OH! Still, that was nearly five years ago, so no use in crying over it now.
Just curious to see what anyone else out there might have that they're still using.
