At home my PC is a six or seven year old setup, PII-400 on an ABIT BH6 mamaboard. 384MB RAM. 20GB and 80GB hard drives. Win98SE. SBLive OEM. GeForce4 w/128, cd reader & cd burner.

My wife's is a little better... Somewhere around 1.5Ghz, crappy onboard video & sound though, Win98SE, DVD burner.

This (shop) one is similar, an old HP Vectra PII 400, 256MB, 4GB, 8X cd.

If you want a good sound card go for a M-Audio Transit USB device. Better SQ, portable and much cheaper too!

I'm using a PII 400 with 128 mb ram on Win98...

Teri, my bad. 768. 256+I added 512 to it. I love the audigy sound card. I can plug in a mic so I can use my computer as a guitar tuner. I love it.

Had a brain fart earlier regarding the numbers. [img]tongue.gif[/img]
