Video Originally Released: December 31st, 2011 ------------------------------------------ Seeing that this video is so old now, I feel I should point out that my latest computer that I'm using exclusively now is one I built myself out of parts I bought myself in 2013 after selling my house, thus breaking the cycle of only having hand-me-down systems. My new system consists of an AMD FX-8350 8-Core CPU running at 4 GHz, a video card equipped with a GeForce GTX 660 chipset and 16 GB of system RAM. Basically, it runs circles around all of my previous systems combined! ;D ------------------------------------------ Additional Information and Corrections: * If you're curious about hard drive space, the Tandy's HD (back when it worked) had 20 MB, the Packard Bell has 350 MB, the Pentium has 2.4 GB spread across two drives, the laptop has 800 MB, the office computer has 120 GB and the last system shown has 240 GB. * One thing I do still use the Pentium system for is 5 1/4" disk transfers, since a friend gave me a spare 5 1/4" drive which I was able to install into the thing since it had the proper hookups. Mind you, because it's a high-density drive, I can't write data to disks with it that my Tandy system will be able to read as my Tandy system's drive is only low density. :/ * The battery for the laptop doesn't hold a charge for more than 5 minutes anymore, so its portability is severely limited. Amazingly though, it can connect over a network with Windows 8 almost effortlessly. :o * The reason I have a colour laser printer is due to a failed business idea which required a lot of printing on card-stock, which my previous inkjet printer couldn't handle. (Actually, the laser printer can't handle anything too thick either, but still thicker stuff than the inkjet... and I like never having to worry about ink levels anymore! Toner lasts seemingly forever! ;) * The fractal program running on the office computer is known as XaoS which you can get from here: http://xaos.sourceforge.net * Yes, that's an illuminated keyboard connected to the last computer. Specifically, a Logitech G110 gaming keyboard. I only really bought it because it was the least-expensive full-stroke keyboard I could find with illuminated keys... and I got it brand new for dirt cheap thanks to price matching! I use it with my newer 4 GHz system now. :B ------------------------------------------ Pixelmusement Website: http://www.pixelships.com ADG on Pixelmusement: http://www.pixelships.com/adg Alphabetical Index of ADG Episodes: http://www.pixelships.com/adg/index2.html
