    Post Shittiest computer contest!

    *Must be one of your main computers/frequently used

    My current computer stats:

    (I've had this computer for 9 or 10 years now)

    Processor: AMD Athlon XP 1700+
    1.47 GHz
    512 MB of RAM
    38.2 GB of memory on the hard drive
    Radeon 7200 graphics card

    and plus it freezes every 5 minutes or so.




    Also, recommendations for new laptops and when to buy?

    I think I may have a serious contender:

    Dell Optiplex GX280 MiniTower

    1.9ghz
    256mb RAM
    40 GB HDD
    Dell's onboard integrated graphics processor

    It's a work only computer so the most it has to run are MS Office applications, but yeah, an all around shitty computer!

    Wow. I wouldn't be able to have computers these old, since most of my computers crash after 5-8 years.

    Well then what's the point of posting your graphics card, ram,processor, motherboard, powersupply etc. It's not like the hard drive is like some novelty accessory or something.

    My friend's laptop has a 4200 RPM drive.

    Even though it was new a year or two ago, THAT was a shitty computer.

    Haha, I remember using AppleIIe's that had no hard drive, so yes it was a novelty accesory when they were released.

    Of course, even when I was using those computers when I was a really young kid, they were out-dated even then.

    Well I think it makes sense, if their HDD is like a 12GB or something small and lame like that.

    If its your typical HDD size then your computer is probably not even worth putting on the list of shittiest computers.

    Because hard drives is just space really...sure there are the read and write times, but they don't make a massive difference, its still just storage space.
    The other stuff is what does the work in a computer, so the stats are more important than the stats on a hdd.

    In most modern computers, the bottleneck for many daily task is the hard drive...

    You can have hd's set up in raid, they can be really high rpm's or ssd hd's and they will make your computer load everything so much faster.

    this is the shittiest computer contest.

    not the best shittiest computer contest.

    edit: also there are no rules to this thread so who the fuck cares who posts what. id rather see more components listed, not less. its not like these are being submitted to a board for reviewing and validity, nor are we wasting significant bandwidth by including the hdd in our posts.

    If somebody is using a low capacity, low RPM ATA HDD, I think it is valid.

    In that case I lose automatically:


    Macbook
    1.83 ghz Core Duo
    2gb RAM (upgraded from 512mb)
    160gb HDD (upgraded from 60gb)
    Combo Drive (read: no DVD burner) which also doesn't want to read certain DVDs anymore (and also won't eject the DVDs it doesn't read)
    Display flickers on occasion.
    Had a hairline crack where my right wrist rests, which developed into a flopping piece of plastic, which I then tried to superglue back on. Now I have a slit in the wrist-rest with crusty superglue left. Me thinks it's time to upgrade.

    Did use it with a BT Might Mouse which was a PoS, so now I use it with a Razer Copperhead.
