Whatever happened to the basement servers that took down the neighborhood power grid?

They're still doing their thing..  Only one is on full time.. pretty expensive to keep them on..

The computer I lost is my opteron 185  nforce4 system... sigh...........

I don't understand why a single person would need more than one desktop, one portable computer, and perhaps a work terminal as well. Just make your one desktop really freakin' nice.

Unless you're doing some shady-ass **** on a never-networked device....

Found it..  phew...

It were under some boxes of old cobol books


Only have a spare gtx670 ,  guess it'll have to do.. 450watt psu should handle it without any harddrives

[xtrafrood]

Just joking around. Glad you found whatever it was. GTX something. Some kind of Nvidia product I guess? idk

Um I have (at least) 4 operational desktop computers, 3 operational servers, 2 non-operational servers (well, operational, but decommissioned), and 2 non-operational desktops.

I occasionally find one where I forgot I'd moved it to when cleaning up the last time.

I was under the impression that I was among like individuals..

Does not every geekhacker haz a minimum of 30 computers.

I had, but cleaned out my apartment. Now it's only Macbook Pro 2010 (soon hackintosh addition), MacBook Air 13", PS4, iPad 3 (if you consider that a computer). Oh and my raid 6 i5 16gb server.

I KNOW I DISAPPOINT. Please don't hit me (too hard) tp..

I used to have about double that, but I seriously downsized last time I moved house.

I had a closet full of computers at one point. Just not enough desk/floor space for all of them. 30 is a whole bunch of computers, though. Come to think of it I probably had a Model M in that closet The pain..

What do you DO with all that hardware?? Do you have a use for it or just for spares / funz?

Yeah... I kinda know what you mean. I do have a GF though, but what's the point? When I tell her I went for 3000 instead of 3400 MHz RAM coz the 6700K may not take 1.32-1.33 V stable and that I have to do an ADA 64 for at least 2-4 hours to see if the system is stable at 4.7 GHz, the only response I'm getting is "ok hun, whatever you say". Basically, for tech stuff, GH is my social life. I have *zero* geeks (real nerds, not hipsters) in real life. They are either extinct around me in my neighborhood or I don't know what.

Some of it was opportunistic purchases - I always wanted a Cobalt Raq, now I have three of them.  Work bought me an old IBM XServer, and I got a second one for parts, but haven't needed any parts, so I have 2 working servers now.  That's what's in the main rack.  The other rack just has a switch or two in it.

I used to have a small cluster of servers, but I downsized to just 1, which ended up saving quite a bit of electricity.

Same here man. There are 0 nerds near me.
My best mate is a pretty big nerd but it's 100% video games, no tech, no gadgets & no hardware. So I go on GH as well to 'hang out' with my fellow nerds.

Although I respect gamers, I come across a lot of gamers who believe all the razor hype and the lot and don't understand tech a bit. It can be very frustrating. Not saying that all gamers are like this, but many of my "gamer friends" are like this.

Most of my friends that were hardcore gamers when I was at school no longer play games. The ones that do are very cost aware and would not spend anything more than what is necessary on a keyboard/mouse.

One of my friends bought a razor headset and was telling me how good it was so I started feeding him **** about being a razor fanboi (we would pretty much rip on each other for anything and everything). You know what he did, turned around and fed me right back for spending hundreds of dollars on a 27 year old IBM keyboard.

Everything is a matter of perspective, I mean the headset was probably good and he was happy with it. If people are happy with their Razor stuff so be it.

Doesn't mean we cant rip on it, but I would not take it personally if someone rates their Razor command station higher than your beige IBM keyboard that is as old as you, has this strange plug on the end and cost more than their lightshow.

Good points made. Everybody has its one "focus" / addiction in tech and is willing to spend good money on it. Mine are keyboards/mice and DSLRs (bodies, lenses) etc. mostly. For instance, I just dropped some good money on a new camera bag from f-stop. It was around 400 dollars. Many people called me crazy. But it does exactly what I need it to do. I guess most of us are willing to pay large sums of money for over engineering, whatever the tech is.
