compaq is about a year(family computer
Dell Inspiron531s 2 days.. Just got it.

my dell inpiron 531 is about a few months

eMachine. Less than a year. It'll be a year late March 2008.

There is a whole sale market in my city. I got my PC assembled from there around 4 months ago. Till now I've had no problems at all except the power supply that had stopped working a few days back. However there was a 1 year warranty in it and they replaced it in 2 days. Since I got all the high features installed on this PC, I am going to have it forever I suppose, will just keep upgrading from time to time.

thats the way to go, buy a computer and just keep upgrading it instead of buying a whole new one.

My compy's all vary in age

Primary Desktop: Extremely modified HP Pavilion a362n, 5 years old on June 23
Nothing in it besides the CPU, mobo, and RAM are original: thats how modded it is

Desktop 2: HP Pavilion a720n (dont use it anymore...)
Server: Dell Poweredge 2300 Dual PII 350 (The Wolf Den host server)

Laptop 1: Gateway MT3418 (Upgraded to WinXP, dual boots Ubuntu 6.06 with XP)
Laptop 2: Gateway Solo 2500 (Intel PII 366; does not POST)
Laptop 3: CTX EzBook 700 (AMD K6 233)

Quite a collection...o yea I managed to keep an old Toshiba 80486 75Mhz working until dad threw it out...

75????? What os did it use, dos?

Windows 95

Well how did it run with it?

it wasnt a jack rabbit....it actually ran pretty well though, with 12MB of RAM...

better than the AMD 386SX/25 (25Mhz) with 8MB that I had before it <<< 5 min boot time in Win95
