Pieces of our first 200 Mhz Pentium 1 are hiding in my closet, except the pentium which hangs from my keys now :p

I can’t speak for the others, but I run an AD domain at home. It is more or less an enterprise setup built from NOS parts. Some of it is for my use as a testing environment, and some of the time I am using it to develop my skills. And some of the time it is just to make guests scratch their heads and wonder what the hell I am up to.

1: Main gaming system
2: Laptop that I used for school and anything productive
3: a 2nd decent gaming computer that I would either use to host a game server or let friends use
4: another computer that I would use just for trying stupid ****, like BeOS or having a computer in the bathroom(j/k).

I also have just a bunch of really stupid **** like: Mac Quadro, 233mhz Laptop w/ no screen(print server), and 386 Laptop.

I am going to get down to having only one good gaming system and then my laptop. Right now I have 3 Pentium 4s in a working system somewhere, its just to much.
