I still have a old P4 box (2.38Ghz Socket 478) which is still good for browsing the web and watching videos and what not, but I'm just wondering does anyone still have these obsolete computer setups?
Hey, if it works for you, it works. I saw a guy on here the other day asking about upgrading the memory on his 450mhz PIII system! I ribbed him a little in fun about still using a system so old, and that is exactly what he said, it does what he needs it to do.
I got AM2 4800 CPU. I only used intel once. Since then I switched to AMD 1st because it's cheaper, 2nd) Last Year AMD beat intel on the dual core game.
But I am not sure this year, I heard Intel's new CPU, not sure if AMD has a match for that.
Too bad I can't vote several times because I have 6 AM2/AM2+ Duals/Quads total in my home. I also have one at work (which I built) with a Phenom 9950 Black Edition which is a great one for web development purposes and all that goes along with that.

You have so many PCs there man... you use them all at once? or are you building your own home network? =)
I hope AMD would rise up from the graves. =)
Well I have my PC, my girlfriends, HTPC, one is a backup machine/NAS, one is a guest computer (I'll be damned if they touch mine!!!) and one as a testing machine.
My son still plays MMOs with me on my old P4 3GHz, Radeon 9250. It will still play games like LotRO, DDO and Perfectworld at low settings on a 19inch 1024x768. Some games like Guildwars and Trackmania it will go as high as medium! I may move my 9800 GTX+ to it and get a 5850 for my main gaming machine to see if I can extend its usefulness for another year.

Nice computer line collection.
