I knew i spend this money for a good reason... to show my specs off.

Specs:

AMD Athlon XP 2100+
512 MB DDR RAM
140 Gig HD (8 MB cache)
GeForce4 Ti 4400
-(dual monitor for programming)
-Video in and out (XBOX gaming)
DVD drive
USB 2.0 (4 ports)
5.1 sound (2 sound cards... i for 5.1 and one that came integrated)
you run of the mill netword card
and Gentoo Linux ()
(I sadly dual boot WinXP Pro for PPC comunication and Windows compatability testing for my projects)

What i want:
More computers so I can build a beowolf cluster

or More parts so I can build another computer.

At work I use a Sun Workstation running 3 CPUs (can go up to

but my home computer could kick it any day at standard games and apps.
What it is good at is multi users servics (Grid computing...)

The sad story:
Santa won't be bringing me any of the things on the want list as my parents say I spend too much time and money on computers anyway.
