Thanks, I am a firm believer in getting as much info out there on my website or here on stuff whether it's Toyota or PC related.

I figure if I run into a snag on something, I'll post the fix.
I just updated my PC page to reflect the issue I had earlier in the week with my new TV tuner card.
Hopefully the info will help someone from pulling their hair out trying to figure out why the app stopped working right.

4 - win2k all around

1ghz Athlon Thunderbird with 768 ram SCSI plextor reader and writer 2 30gb hd, 2 10gb hd
not much anymore, but it was pretty slick when I built it in 2000. I just have need for anything faster.

dual 450 precision workstation...aka file server 4 40gb drives

amd 550mhz (wife's) 3 20gb drives

1.6mhz inspiron with 512mb ram for surfing around the house.

Not very glamorous.working on computers all day has made me realize I don't have much need for a faster one at home. it'd be nice, but I basically just use internet, so it's no big thing. My only upcoming change is a promise raid card in the file server with two 160gb mirrored drives.

It depends on what you consider how many? If it's running, there are 5, but if you mean total...... I'm not exactly sure.... somerwhere between 20 and 30... I have every computer that I've ever owned, but most are boxed up waiting for the day I get my computer room built, then I'll put them all on display. Kinda of a history thingy. My all time favorite was my C-64, back then you really had to know how to optimize your code, unlike the trash that is being produced today....

2 Web Servers. My fire wall server. My PC with dual monitors, GF's Laptop, My Laptop, The MP3 PC, my daughters PC. 2 cisco routers. (not really a PC but they do have Software running on them and a Processor.)

10 I guess.

Plus some old beater II's and enough parts to make at least another 2 or 3 PC's
