wow that looks pretty cool, whats the specs on it?

well thats pretty impressive, exspecialy how muhc hard drive space you have ... but what sup[rosed me is you yave the same ammount of memmory, except mine is SDRam, i think DDR is supposed to be better. But very nice machine. Oh BTW, mine is named Elanor, i can't quite remember but i think that name means "Elven Star" in Quendi (elven language from LotR) ... plus she wsa being retarded and i started yelling at her and that name came out ... so it stuck.

I put this together in about 5 min, so forgive sloppy edits (and I just got my camera yesterday so forgive the sloppy camera work). This is a brief video (2.5min, 20MB, DivX 5) of my apartment.

What you see (since I was too lazy to title it):
-Common Room
-Stack of books from my reading seminar and a spot focus test
-Front row of tapes on the bookshelf. Those go 3 deep.
-Hallway
-Matt & Yasha's Door
-Yasha's pic with doodles (by him)
-Matt's pic with doodles (by him)
-My Room
-Walls, ceiling, scrolls, stuff on shelves
-Monitor covered in pocky stickers, "Officer Lockstock" onscreen
-Tower, SVHS VCR in corner
-Walkman, LD player, PSX

If I had the time and/or motivation, I'd have made something spiffier. The music is "Hiyo Hiyo Theater" from Spiral.[/url]

wow ... thats pretty .. umm big ... 3 gigs of ram? well your HD is the same size as mine ... but 3 gigs of ram ... ack ... thats a lot ... hmm i wonder ... would it be possible to hard wire a Hard Drive to the ram slots ... this way you can have 40+ gigs of ram ... no wait .. mother boards do have limits to how much ram you can stuff into them ... danm it. oh well you can always dream ... no wait ... i can't ... a HD would function differently from a chip ... danm it.
