Vash:
I am currently limping along on a second hand HP Pavillion running XP. It's got a paltry 40GB hard drive (17GB of which is taken up by music!).
It's running a Pentium III processor and an Asus HAWK 1.08 motherboard.
I bought hte whole thing from my office at the time when they updated their systems. It was $200 complete with monitor and all, so...
I bought it after 3 weeks of being computer less after my Toshiba Satillite Pro laptop finally gave up the ghost... Withdrawls suck.
So my current system is pretty punkass, but I am saving for a nice laptop.
OH, and while I use XP as my platform (came pre-installed on the computer), I ALWAYS use Firefox and Thunderbird.
I LOVES me some LimeWire!!! (exclusively for the legal downloading and sharing of files which in no way infringe on anyones copywrites ^-^ .)

I think I have all of you beat! As in, I've got the WORSE computer. It's a '99 Gateway Pentium III 500 mghz with a - cough cough - 20 GB harddrive and a maxed out memory of 384 Megs.
Aaand I'm still running Windows 98SE. I'll be getting a new computer (finally) in the next couple of weeks.

UPDATE!
I upgraded to a 120gb hard drive and un-installed ALL Microsoft products. I have been running on Ubuntu for the past several weeks and I'm never going back to MS, ever. :Xo!
