Used to be like that in our family until the kids started earning their own
money. Now with their level of competence, their money and some of mine,
they all have high performance machines too.

The border has to make do with a Pentium 233Mhz laptop and the server is a
PII/450MHz

I dunno if its a prioritising thing or a geek thing - but who here has
given their cast-off PC to the missus/kid/whatever while keeping the
best one, and which of us have got the shirtiest machine in the place?

I've got a P166 and a PII 266, while the wife has a celeron 700 and the
boy has a celeron 300.  (the home server is a C366)

One teacher/geek at work here has a C1.6 laptop and an athlon 700, while
his kids have a P233 and a P133.

Thoughts?
