Thats not a rat pc

a rat pc is a mother load Pentium 3.8 Ghz based system with 1.5 Gb of ram, 160 Gb hard disk and a Hugh Jass graphics card crammed into the case of an amstrad or an old 186 running the original monitor :P

ah, they both suck. if any other industry produced products with half the amount of faults computers do, they'd have been sued out of existence years ago.

but we've all been sucked in anyway. I ordered a new laptop the other day myself. oh, we're all just techno-sheep...baaaahhhh baaaahhhh. Cook me up with rosemary and mint sauce! 😂

P.s. Trust me when I tell you Steve is NOT God. I know god personally. Steve is another guy altogether. 😉

I put a complete gaming rig (including an xp3500, 2 gig RAM, 250gig 7200rpm drive and an X800 on an extension cabled AGP slot mounted perpendicular to the board) into one of those aluminium briefcases for a guy at work, just had the required ports exposed with a flip up cover on the side. even fit the keyboard and mouse in the case. He wanted it for LAN gaming and just took his LCD and the briefcase, plus a couple of power leads. We called it a full power portable.

A POSSE AD ESSE.

I think The Rev Pete Wood can confirm this ...

God invented PCs to keep dropkicks off Macs. But then if it wasn't for Steve, then Bill would not have a clue what to do next. Vista....pppfffff.

While it's true that Mac is 3% of the market, 90% of the worlds creative product is produced from a Mac.

How did this end up a Mac debate ... It was a mini-itx post?

I like the PC built into a radio controlled sized new beetle. There were some pics of it floating around a while ago. The front bumper popped out to reveal the CD drive

COME ONNNNN. if this is a complete gaming rig why did you use an X800 on AGP...we all know its all about PCI-E these days on a nice 7600gt or something 🙂

I built that machine nearly 18 months ago, the x800XT cost $950 alone! Everything was top spec for the time.

And PCI-E? Only gives an improvement on properly designed mainboards that have the power routed correctly. Think Gigabyte, MSI or ASUS. Back on revision 1 PCI-E/X boards, with same config of CPU/RAM, the PCIs were slower and more power hungry than the AGP for similar GPU/memory clock speeds.

A POSSE AD ESSE.
