Duron 1000
256 DDR
ATI Radeon 32MB vga/dvi/s-video out
Soundblaster Live MP3+ 5.1 outputed to my Kenwood stereo system
2HD- 80G, 20G
8X CDRW
various accessories
and one fast internet hookup (used to be crazy fast though, no more)
for a broke college student, this is the best i can do. prolly get another burner one of these days, they're always practically free after rebate. maybe some more mem.
