Here's Waldo's PC

Well that looks snicker'n snot Waldo! It should last about...... oh....... 6 months before it's outdated

At least it seems that way sometimes doesn't it. When I think about what I ran even 10 years ago, I'm amazed how far we have come..... but do they really run that much faster today? But what they do is amazing.


Great going and good luck with it!

Everything is there....But...NO MODEM....How ill you keep intouch????

 

[rem1]

Waldo that unit ought to be faster than greasedlightning. With a fast printer your label making might keep up with your wine making.

Enjoy.

Now thats a nice computer! 320 gigs, thats a lot buddy. I have about 14 of these but I store movies on them and each 1 takes up 4.36 gigs or less. Plus I have about 65 gigs of music. Do you keep music or the such that you need this massive hard drive?

Wade you would love my one server. It has a terrabyte of drive space in a raid array. You can lose a drive and it keeps on a ticking until you replace the bad one and it repairs itself on the fly. I probably have a bit of overkill in my single man office. Three severs and 4 workstations. They run 4 versions of the same program so I can open older house plans without needing to change anything. And then there are the computers in the house - 5 of them in there. The youngest just got his new one-better last a while Dell 2.66 Duo Core with 4 gig memory, Vista Premium, just a 250 gig HD, DVD drive, 512 MB nVidia 8600GT video card and a 20 inch "free" flat panel monitor. It came with a cheap laser printer and Works 8.5 for homework. Now his big brother the computer geek is jealous.


I have motives for getting him this powerhouse. He is an artitist guy. The kid does pencil drawings to rival some pretty good artists. He loves 3-d modeling of game characters and is pretty darned good with Autodesk 3-DS Max. His big brother helps teach him the basics and he just does it naturally. His computer gave up on him in October and he wanted one for Christmas. I got it for him about November 15 and he patiently waited for it until Christmas.

That server would be nice as i have to switch out a hardrive if that movie is on another drive but that takes no time at all. My desktop is about 7 years old but it works great(knock on wood). It was top of the line at the time and we had to replace the old 21 monitor with a 19" flat panel early last year and that leaves me a lot more room on my desk. Other than that i have 2 Compaq Presario Duo Cores with XP as I didnt want the newer Windows so I had to search around quite a bit to get it without that. Works for me just fine. Just need to get rid of this stupid new router as its slower than the older 1 that crapped out. Im hoping that ATT comes in my area very soon with Uverse and then Ill switch back to them with all my services and get their free wireless router and modem in one.

Dang, apple. That's one heavy setup. RAID 1 or 5 or 10?

 

[JWMINNESOTA]

Waldo, looks like a great system, bet your like a kid on his birthday, cant wait to get home!

 

[grapeman]

Dang, apple. That's one heavy setup. RAID 1 or 5 or 10?

Just a simple RAID 5,RAID 1 is just mirrored drives. I've used them in the past, but when one goes down it's a pain having to replace the drive and wait for the mirrors to rebuild. Much more seamless with RAID 5.

Waldo, you got us concerned! With all that speed you will be looking for fast wine aging too! And, without a modem NW is right. You won't be able to keep in touch!

Have fun!Edited by: Jack on Rainy

Waldo is probably using "The Dixie Chicks", you know, broadband.

 

[hannabarn]

Man!! You young guys sure lost me with those computers. There's not enough space left in my head for all that tech talk. I'll just stick with my little old laptop!!!!

Is that the same as DSL wireless ?

 

[hannabarn]

That's it Waldo!! Do they have that in Arkansas already???

[Waldo]

OK folks......Im off here for and going to start the install of the new puter here in a bit so i may be off line for a while till I get it all set up and all my files/settings transferred from old computer

 

[grapeman]

We will see you on the other side Waldo! May the move be swift and sucessful!

 

[Waldo]

Well, thus far it has been slow and frustrating.....Not sure if I am going to like this Vista. Not much I had on my other system will run on it. My Broadband wireless adapter (2Wire)would not work and had to buy a new one to get online. My Print Shop, Nero, Showbiz, and many other programs will not run on Vista......Bought a Belking easy transfer usb cable to transfer a lot of my files and settings from my old system to the new one and so far it has not done crapola except to keep giving me error messages .....But im going to hang in there and keep plugging away for a while longer before i pack it all up and ship it back to HP or make them send me the XP operating system,

 

[grapeman]

Sorry to hear things aren't going well Waldo. I don't dare upgrade my main workstation yet- I certainly don't want Vista. I had been toying with getting a Dell Quadcore system with at least 4 GB memory and dual nVidia Quadro 1700 cards. If I do get it,I will use Windows XP 64 bit Professional.
