    If you would have read the thread you would have seen that I haven't turned it on in the longest time, so I don't remember the specs nor do I care to look them up. I just know it has enough power to do most things I want to do with it.

    --------

    Anyways, after much thought, I ended up going the Media Center/DVR route after seeing this - MythBuntu. I decided to do something that my girlfriend could use too.

    I would donate it to charity.
    A lot of organizations could use it to help the less fortunate learn to use computers.

    Small video I made a few weeks ago.

    I have Synergy running on both a Windows XP box with SP3, and a 1998 iMac G3 slot-loading machine. With 60MB of RAM and an upgraded 80GB hard drive.
