Who has the oldest main system?

Just curious because I know that some folks buy things very often. I think I'm a bit dated, but doable.

Running an Opteron 165, with 4 GB RAM, and an ATI Radeon X1900XT. No SSD, yet. Running Win XP Pro, till I get the SSD (probably next buy).

My laptop has similar specs, but it's got a GeForce 7600 Go, and a Turion 64 clocked at 1.8 GHz. And only 2 GB of RAM.

I think I've decided to not upgrade anything except my video card and harddisk until the next generation processors come out and prices settle a bit. So... maybe late summer 2011 / early fall 2011?

I know Ice probably has a quad-socket i970, with triple AMD Radeon 5970s or something.

My main is the Intel Core2Quad Q6600 and motherboard that I got on black friday almost three years ago. I've swapped out the HD and vid a couple times since then, but same CPU, Mobo, & 4GB RAM.

Hmm... Looks like we're almost in the same boat, Hat.

Gambino must use his Family connections for the video cards.

I just make 'em an offer they can't refuse.
