Is it compatible with QERY-layout Lego keyboards?

I've got Two:
Dell Inspiron 530

Intel Core2Quad Q6600 2.4GHz
2 GB Ram
500 GB HDD
22" Flat screen
Dual boot Win/Ubuntu

Dell Dimension E520

Intel Pentium D 820 2.8GHz
1GB Ram
250 GB HDD
17" CRT monitor
Ubuntu 9.04

The Inspiron is the first computer that I've actually bought whole. When it's predecessor was starting to crap out I didn't have the time or the desire to build a new one so we ordered up this Dell. The Dimension is a hand-me-down from my parents. They had just moved away from their technical support guru (me) and were having problems with it so they bought a new one and shipped me the castoff. I put a clean install of Ubuntu on it and it hasn't had a single problem, well except for the 17" monitor that will be replaced just after christmas.

Well, lets see...
I got 6, soon to be only 5:

Tandy 102 (best portable keyboard ever, with 32k expansion)
Tandy 200 (like the 102, but bigger screen, not expanded)
Apple IIgs w/ dual 3.5" drives, dual 5.25" drives, 1 meg RAM and standard RGB monitor
Generic P1 @ ~200 Mhtz, it's running my Xeltek Superpro II chip programmer (ISA slot)
HP 64110A "portable mainframe" computer w/ logic analysis boards and probes (selling)
HP zv6000 laptop (5 year old piece of junk lappy. Should have got a desktop.)

The 64110A is quite cool/retro/rare, but too big/not useful enough for me, and the guy at hpmueseum.net is going to buy it from me. See some pictures here:

It has a very nice keyboard, I might add.

Yup, that's me. What's your handle on the VC forums?

EDIT: D'oh, it's kishy. Stupid me.

I now have 6 desktops and 2 laptops. 3 P4 desktops, 2 PIII desktops, 2 PIII laptops, 1 Pentium MMX desktop. That would make 8 total computers. 9 if you include my NEC MobilePro 770 pocket PC

I only have two.
An old desktop that I bought at college, and a new Thinkpad T500 laptop.

I've been able to clock my K6-2 at 450Mhz through the BIOS.

meltie · « **Reply #60 on:** Fri, 15 January 2010, 08:39:47 »

I've got 4: ASUS EEE PC Netbook, ibook G4, and two desktops, one of them some 64 bit AMD IIRC and the other a fairly new intel Dual Core. I used to have 5, but I threw the server out recently.

Everything on my network pictured below along with a couple of older systems (including a 486/25 in mint condition)

Heh, my laptop is called ICARUS... Was the computer in the pic named for the AI in Deus Ex too?

Hofy · « **Reply #63 on:** Fri, 15 January 2010, 11:31:14 »

My Icarus is so named as it is my dedicated flight sim computer.

Oh, I thought it was your dedicated NES emulator.

itlnstln · « **Reply #65 on:** Fri, 15 January 2010, 11:50:26 »

And I have 'em all. I LOVE emulators. It's about the only gaming I'll do these days.

itlnstln · « **Reply #66 on:** Fri, 15 January 2010, 12:25:08 »

I would hope so. The funny thing is I had to use a "tool" O2 gave me to see that pic at work.

Nope I actually use a real NES and cartridges! I just scored an NES Advantage joystick off ebay for $3.50. The seller claims it had very little use and sat on a shelf. It is brown on one end from the sun so I will see if I can whiten it up a bit. otherwise it is like new and works great.

Picked up another one from uni today, so whatever I had before + 1. I'm thinking I'll replace my current gateway/server with it, because it's got a bit more oomph in it, some day. Up until then I'll play around with vserver on it, soon as I transplant some ram into it.

I used to have a bunch of computers - Mac Mini, a gaming tower I built, and 2 Inspiron laptops but now I'm down to one Inspiron. I'll be using my Filco at my office where I run a really nice Optiplex 755, and I might haul it home with me so that I can write at my desk. I guess I should probably just get a Happy Hacker for the house, right people?
