Pentium 75Mhz, later upgraded to some sort of WinPC Pentium running at 180Mhz, and then, finally in 2003, i upgraded to a P4, which i'm unfortunately still using. I'm holding out on an upgrade until nehalem comes out.
Damm,thats to far back for me lol lets see i can give you a few yrs amd 3800,amd x4800,FX57,FX60,FX62, Intel- e6700,Two X6800s,Two QX6700s, Two QX6800s,Two QX6850s, and now Two QX9650s

Out of curiousity, when you walk into your house and see that beautiful system sitting there, do you hear angelic harps playing and a choir singing in your mind? I know I would.
That's for my main rig, also have running a e2160 (media pc), Celeron 420 (gaming machine for older titles), K6-2 450 (for even older games, lol), 2 x PIII 500MHz (haven't thought of a use yet), and some lying around.

1) I was so little i dont remmember much of it but i know it was neither amd or intel. I think it was from the 80's and on the keyboard it actualy had a place to insert cartridges for games. and the tower had the 5.25 floppy drives.
UPDATE after looking at pics of some of ur guys sytems i found out that the pc was a TI-99 that i got in around 94 when i was 4.
2) Z80 "The Original GameBoy"
3) AST Laptop 133MHZ MMX Celeron with 8mb ram
4) 100MHZ Celeron with turbo button for a quick 200MHZ.
5) 500mhz Celeron
6) 733MHZ Celeron
7) AMD 2800+ Barton
8) mobile AMD 2800+ got it for free.
9) Core Duo T2250 @ 1.73
10) AMD 4200+ X2 @2.2
And for # 11 im hoping for a e21xx or e22xx oced to 3.0ghz because im poor and need something cheap to oc.

Just ordered the QX9650 (Friday hopefully)
Heheheh, my uncle was big into computers, so I got all the hand-me down stuff,
C64
C128
386 (Unknown Flavor)
Pentium 75Mhz (First computer I ever paid for, $50 I think, lol)
200Mhz Upgrade for above, wasnt an Intel or AMD, but I don't remember who made it, seems like Cyrex
PII450
PIII1.13 Ghz
AthlonXP 2200+
Sempron 2800 OCed to 2.2Ghz
Athlon64 3400 OCed to 2.6Ghz
Opteron 165 OCed to 2.8Ghz
1. 10 MHz 80286 in an IBM PS/1. Ran it from 1990 until around 1997, put it in a closet, gave it away in 2005.
2. 50 MHz Intel 80486SX2 in an IBM PS/2. Got it used, ran it from about '95 to 2005, then gave it away. Kicked myself for also giving away its original Model M keyboard.
3. 500 MHz K6-2 in a Compaq Presario 7360. Ran it from late 1998 to 2005, also gave it away. 4. 1.8 GHz P4 Willy in an HP Pavilion. Got it in late 2001 with XP RTM. This one still is running at my folks' place. The unit was not my choice of CPU- I'd have picked a Tualatin or Athlon XP and built it myself.
5. 2.2 GHz P4-M Northwood in a Gateway 600 laptop bought late 2002. P4 heat finally killed it in July.
6. Athlon 64 4200+ Manchester in a custom machine built in very early 2006. Still running like a champ.
7. Core 2 Duo U7500 in a Gateway S-7125C bought in August to replace the old dead 600.

UNIX is user-friendly- it's just picky who its friends are.
DRM is slowly killing personal computing, one Sony rootkit and TPM chip at a time.
Pent 486>Athlon T-Bird 1GHz (3 weeks after it came out)>XP 3000+ Barton>Skt 940 FX-53>dual Opty 143's>5000+ BE. (not counting laptops/help me with my PC issues too many to list)
The 64K and then the 128K ATARI had a homemade CB with 1MB of ram (hooked to srl connector as a RAM Drive),an IBM HD controler,a 40MB IBM HD,spcl controler chips in the four 5 1/4" soft-floppy drives....and a 2400 BAUD modum (last modum I used).
From 1980 to early 1984 it ran the largest/swiftest BBS on the planet!
It would run all software (with emulation OS) for Atari/Commi-door and IBM.

*While we crash and burn, small, low tech, agrarian societies such as the Hmong in the mountains of Laos will continue on without so much as blinking an eye.*
Notable things. I actually upgraded the 286 to the 386. (ok, with my dads help...) I did add the new 80MB drive to it myself. Not bad for an ~8yo. I got the 486DX100 chip when I was working at the local college. They were throwing them out and I still had the old 486, so I said why not. I was upset with my mom because she wouldn't wait the few weeks to get the P133MHz. I wanted it because it would have MMX, and the 120 wouldn't. The Celeron was the first one I got after I moved out from my parents house. The Celeron and the P3-500 were actually fairly close in performance. The only reason why I used the slot P3 instead of the Celeron was because the Celeron motherboard had no AGP slot, so game playing was better on the P3. Both the Sempron and the Athlon systems are currently being used.
For those of you listing a bunch of chips, didn't anyone ever use the Osborn? My dad used one, I'll always remember the sewing machine computer.
