Hey Nunya, look at it this way...at least you don't have to reboot your notepad every 5 minutes because it flashes errors all over itself! HAHA!

yeah but if I delete an important file I have to figure out which recycle bin.

Well I insited that we replace all our P200's with win95 that took about 10 min from start to being ready to type something in word. Now we have PIII 1GHz machines with nice laser printers each. And win2k/XP whatever you're into.

You guys have it good! Speaking of printers, we have one printer that is shared through the network...11 computers in our office have to use that one printer.

Well, until about a month ago I had basically the same exact computer that you do. However one of the staff members computer was broken every day. No matter how much I tried to convince her that there was nothing wrong with her computer she kept having problems. So they bought her a new P4 1.5ghz with 512mb of ram.
So I took her old computer that was broken. P3 700 with 256mb of ram. Runs eccp 24/7 and I havent had a single problem with it yet. Stupid lUsers. There's nothing wrong with my computers that wasnt caused by them.

Until 6 weeks go I was using a Unisys Aquanta CP 100Mhz Pentium 1 32Mb Ram (also running 95) 1.5Gb HDD, CD Rom broken, had to share CD Rom over the network with the machine next to me. I am now landed with a Wyse winterm running over a not too stable Citrix network.

Great.

Not my primary desktop system but still up and running with an address database and label printer -

DEC Pentium 75
64MB ram (after I upgraded it)
4X CD Rom
2 800MB hard drives (second drive salvaged out of another machine)
13" monitor
Win 95 (came with 3.11!!! installed)

Works fine as long as you're not in a hurry.

More agony! I just opened the case to find that my 64mb RAM is the sum of 4 x 16mb SIMM RAM modules--OUCH!
