I love how Nemo has like, a computer from 1996, then says windows is horrible. Of course Windows works bad on ancient PCs. Upgrade man.
He's a poor guy, and computers in Russia are very expensive...
Me and Q know what it cost me to make my PC:
Barely anything.
My CPU was and motherboard came out of a PC that we thought was junk with a K6-II in it.... I insisted that we look inside it because it was MASSIVE. We find an Athlon 1200MHz in there, and an Asus AV7 motherboard. I take the board and CPU, Q takes the case with tons of fans, including one MASSIVE one.
I had two 256MB sticks of RAM at home, and a 128MB I got off Q to use in BlacI when I used it for a day. Those all went into the Asus board. My dad had bought me one of the 256s, the other I traded a 128MB for LOL. The hard drive my dad got me, and the video card I got by giving Mr. Clean a different one that was AGP.
The case I found with Mr. Clean over on the other side of town, and I loved it so I took it home and put my shit in it.
There you have it, the story of how my computer came to be.

but in russia those things maby be not just "lying around"
Yea in Russia I think people don't just throw stuff like that out, they probably sell or reuse it.
Fish, don't be TOO hard on them. Remember when we hated Nero because it made coasters on our K6IIs @ 475MHz?

Ya, but we finally realized it was our slow-ass CPUs making it not work, therefore, we need to tell people its their slow-ass CPUs that make things not work.
By the way, Im downloading 2003 now, and Ill see if its better, it probably is. Also, Ill TRULY make it "workstation"... Im going to edit the start menu banner to say Windows 2003 Professional.
In Russia you can buy everything.... My friend got an intel 186... I haven't heard of that CPU before... 1meg of ram there... works good...
We need a CGA monitor...
