It'd be pretty hard to build a PC that runs off one cord .

Nearly 2 years, with a HDD upgrade and soon a RAM upgrade:

Intel Pentium 4 - 2.80GHz
512MB DDR RAM (soon to be 2GB)
160GB HDD + 80GB HDD
WinXP Pro Spanish

I forget about the other specs, but video and all is very decent. Cost me a small fortune, so it should be.

dunno, each part has its own age basically...
varying from 2months-5years i guess
XP Pro
AMD Sempron64 2600+ @1.6GHz
1GB DDR RAM
80+160GB SATA HDD

my laptop is about 1year old now, one of the cheapest in those days. Memory and WiFi are upgraded though.
XP Pro
AMD Sempron64 Mobile 3400+ @800MHz/1.6GHz/1.8GHz
1GB RAM (of which 32MB shared video)
80GB HDD

4 years old, it feel older than that.

We got it from a cousin who built it for us when I was 14. I was told at the time it was a good PC for a good price... $1997

XP Home
AMD Athlon XP 2500+ @1.83Ghz Edit: Just overclocked to 2.2Ghz
2x 256Mb Kingmax DDR-400 Mhz
Nvidea GeForce FX-5200 128Mb
80GB HDD

I've still got the email with all the details.

2 years
AMD Athlon 3400+
Some ram
Some harddrives
Some wires
Some chips..you know..the whole shebang

About 5 or 6 months old..

AMD Turion x2 64bits TL-64 @ 2.xx ghz (can't recall exactly)
2 GB of ram
200 GB hdd

Came pre-installed with Vista, switched back to XP.

That's a laptop of course.. Waiting to get my deal on a new quad to build a desktop.

These are some sad specs, aren't they?

Well the current laptop is only...4 weeks old. My last one (XP Home, 40 GB hd...don't remember anything else) was coming up on 4 years but it kept switching itself off at inconvient times (like in the middle of writing essays) and was running like a pile of mince. Anyways, the current one:

Advent 9115
Windows Vista Home Premium
Intel Pentium Dual CPU 1.46 Ghz
2GB RAM
120GB HD
DVD Re-Writer

Mine is 3 years old.
