    I'm really bored. I started this because I have a Power Mac G4 MDD which is my primary Desktop computer system. My all-time main system is an HP Laptop, which means that laptop takes priority over my Power Mac G4. My Power Mac also does a good job of keeping my feet warm.

    My Power Mac G4 has:
    Dual 1.25GHz PPC G4,
    120GB HDD,
    2GB RAM,
    ATi graphics/64MB of VRAM
    Mac OS X 10.4.11

    My HP ENVY has:
    AMD Vision A10 quad core, 2.30GHz,
    1TB HDD,
    8GB RAM (soon to be 16GB),
    AMD Dual Graphics, Dedicated+Integrated/2.5GB dedicated VRAM
    Windows 8 64

    What about you? Basically a boredom thread.

    That is old haha. I like putting an old machine to good everyday use. This Power Mac I'm using is 10 years old, it was manufactured in 2003.

    What model is that computer that you use?
