Like the title says, if you own a Mac (or Macs) what are it's (their) specs?

I own a year old G3 dual USB iBook. I got it in February of 2003.

It's specs are:

Processor: 800MHz G3
RAM: 128MB built in + 256MB added = 384 MB total
OS: Dual boot; Mac OS 9.2.2 and Mac OS X (10.2.8), as well as, I admit, Windows 98 SE (without Internet Explorer) running under Connectix VPC 6 (I use Win98 only to acsess old PC apps, I don't use it for anything else)
HD Capacity: 30GB Ultra ATA
Browsers: Mozilla 1.0 for OS 9, Mozilla 1.0, 1.7, Firefox, Camino, and Safari in OS X
Security: Norton Firewall, as well as the Mac OS' stability and few vulnerabilities (both in X and 9)

Not very impressive and a bit outdated by today's standards, I know (I still like to run OS 9)...

So, what do you people have?

I didn't know we were counting old Macs too. I've got an old performa around, no idea on speed. The predecessor to my current imac was an old 300mhz iMac DV, one of the few DVs made in the original colors and processor speed (it's orange, and most DVs were 350mhz or higher).

Ha! So why was he afraid to turn it off? Is he one of those people who thinks it is harmful for your computer to turn it on and off too much. That it a HUGE myth. It is shocking how many people believe that myth. Even the people on tech TV are unsure on the issue. Believe me, IT IS NOT BAD FOR YOUR COMPUTER TO TURN IT ON AND OFF REGULARLY!!! (unless maybe if you push the power button on and off repeditly)

i think he was afraid that the data would deteriorate slowly if he left it off. and he also left the monitor on for some reason.

old people can be funny
