I'm glad, that I'm not the only one with such a computer. :-)
I have only one computer. It had the newest technology a few years ago.
It is Pentium 4 with 2,4 GHz; one GB Ram and Gforce 6600.
I do not dare to call that beauty old (anymore). :-)
I started with 512 MB Ram and a Gforce 4800.
I got also "hand-me-down parts", when my bothers upgrades their computers. :-)
So good to have brothers. :-D
