Holy Crap!

OH WOW

This is more stuff than you'd know what to do with. If you had as much stuff running at one time as I do normally, your head a splode. How much crap do you usually run at once?

It's not normal for me to have two media players running at once. Typically I only haze Zune Player going, and only run iTunes at night to use the radio so I can chill to some awesome trance traxxxxx. I usually do run two image editors at once, though. Paint.NET is my go-to for most tasks, but The Shop is hangin' out down there eating up around 850MB of system memory. OUCH!

Probably later I'll have the audacity to run World of Warcraft without closing a single window.

Not a whole lot - usually an IM and a browser. Sometimes I play Xbox while I'm online, though.

Food also. 😛

A browser and WINAMP so's I can listen to WFMU, or maybe a favorite CD. And maybe Itunes to snaffle a few podcasts.

Most I'd have on a normal day would be YIM and a Safari, possibly Skype, if the rabid fans are aplenty. I usually got Stickies up and running, as well, if I'm in a particularly creative or researchy mood. And Word often experiences lots of run time. Same as either iTunes or Radio365. Now, all at once? Not too often, but, there are days when they're all partying on the same screen. o.o

Mostly, though, just a chat program or two, a browser, and one or two others. Easily managed, with Exposé.

Expose' (and easily accessible accented characters) is one of the few things I miss about Mac OS X.

When online I normally run only a browser and, when I'm not too busy, an IM. When offline I usually run only one app at a time: a word processor, media player, or photo editor.

Holy Crap!!

My poor computer would have a coronary like somebody dumped Mountain Dew all over it or something if I attempted to open all that stuff. I've upgraded everything around my motherboard, now I have do that too I suppose.

I can usually run one major application like WoW or Civ. I actually shut down all the other background junk.

What's everybody sporting? Mine is a bit last-gen. Intel Pentium-D dual-core. 2GB PC2-5200 DDR2, 2x160GB UDMA drives, a DVD burner, Radeon X200 PCIe graphics. Windows Vista Ultimate 64-bit.

How 'bout you?

I have no idea what's in my computer. All I know is that most of parts I bought secondhand and says 'Made in Elbonia'.

 

[kopfhorer1]

Nothing wrong with a home-brew system, I say. The parts for my machine came from Crazy Manny's Computer Surplus Depot, a place that's since been turned into a Starbuck's!

That is an awesome name for a computer shop! :laughing:
