Main machine:

I built it about 4 years ago (August 2001), with the finest of parts in mind, well what I could afford anyway. It has, however, evolved over the years. Originally with a GF2, it’s now reached its probable climax of a Dual 1GHz P3 with 512mb of RAM and a GF4200ti. I don’t think this box will get any further than where it’s at right now, the technology has moved on so much in the last few years and the price of technology has dropped to such a degree it’s getting very hard to justify obsolete technology.
