At work:
2.0 GHz Intel Pentium
768 MB RAM
60 GB HDD
NVIDIA video card, but I couldn't tell you more
Some CD/RW and probably DVD/RW drive, can't tell you the specs if I tried
OS: Mandriva LE 2005 (install was 10.1 Community, but you can upgrade over the internet)
Office Suite: Abiword, OOCalc
Browser: Firefox, it would seem 1.0. Weird.

Movie: xine
Notepad: pico, nano (nano has syntax highligthing)
Terminal: Terminal, one of the ttys sometimes
Messenger: Gaim

GNOME-Terminal's a bit of a bloat, I do suggest you check out XFCE's terminal btw.

128 MB RAM
90 GB HDD
Some CD/RW drive
OS: Windows 98 SE 2
Office: Word/Excel
Notes: Metapad (excellent notepad replacement)

At home, defunct except for the occasional Knoppix:
233 MHz Intel Pentium (no number, just the first one :/)
64 MB RAM
13 GB HDD
Some CD/R drive
OS: Windows 98, apps ditto as above
At home, really really defunct, maybe it should be a server:
133 MHz Intel Pentium
16 MB RAM
1.8 GB HDD
No CD/R, just a floppy
OS: Windows 95
Oh, all of my comps have floppy drives, except for the laptop at work.
(I bought my speakers at a thrift shop for 12 bucks.. like new, sold in 1998 for 80.. they is spiffy..)
hum. yeah, Terminal is rather nice.. I've never really used it before, 'cause I've had some issues tracking down dependencies.. like vte.. (which is installed, but it needs the -devel package) yum said so..
on a side note, theres a folder in your home folder called .fonts (well, there is for me) in which you can throw windows fonts, which makes them acessible in any app.. but not for other users I think (since its in /your/ home folder (not usually an issue if there's only one user)) in gnome there's fonts:// (I think) but it didnt want to let me add any to it, even logged in as root...
(I've got comic sans and veranda back.. yay.. Times New Roman I dont give a poo about.. overused font.. all my papers had to be TNR.. )
Rhythmbox is nice, but heavier.. and xmms has a nice collasped mode.. I just leave it running uptop.. (btw, is there any real difference between using a Gstreamer or xine backend?)
oh, and I've got two other computers, but they really dont count..
