My systems

The costs are a little messy because almost none of these computers have the original parts they came with anymore. So I will just give the prices of them based on the case they originally came in because the parts have stayed similar. The first three are my main machines.

The Server

• AMD Sempron
• 1 GB DDR @ 400 mhz
• 2 - 80 GB Hard drives
• 1 - 160 GB Back up drive
• GeForce 3 Ti 200
• 17" CRT monitor
• Runs Debian Testing
Cost: $120 worth of Raffle Tickets + $50 for new motherboard/processor (overclocking is bad)

The Desktop

• Pentium 4 2.4ghz
• 1.5 gb DDR @ 266 mhz (limited by mobo)
• 1 - 40 GB Hard drive
• GeForce 6200 512 mb
• 19" ViewSonic VG920
• Runs Debian Testing
Cost: $50 from an auction + $50 for the video card

The Laptop

• Core Duo 2.16 ghz
• 2 GB DDR2 ram
• 1 - 120 GB Hard drive
• GeForce Go 7600
• 15.4" screen
• Dual boots Debian Testing and Windows XP
Cost: $1900 The fruits of my three summer jobs one summer.

The First

• Pentium 3 500mhz
• 256 MB SDRAM
• 1 - 20GB Hard drive
• It has some video card
• 15" CRT monitor
• Runs Damn Small Linux
Cost: $1500 + $150 (I think) For the GeForce 3 now in the server and also had a 17" monitor originally

There are a couple more machines and a few spare parts that were given to me because they were no longer in use or broken, but these are all the specs I can remember off the top of my head.
