Today I took a day off from work, stayed home and upgraded my 4-year old computer. I have to say that I am very satisfied with the results, it really feels like a new computer.
I remember talking to my friend Andy B. a couple of years ago about the upgrades while looking at Pricewatch.com, but it didn't happen until now.
Here is the summary of what happened:
Silicon Graphics Visual Workstation 330
Before
Dual Pentium III at 800MHz
512MB Ram
64MB Video - VRPro3 (GeForce 256 Quadro)
18GB SCSI Hard Drive at 7,200 rpm
CD Rom
CDRW/DVD Combo
1600SW LCD Flat Panel Monitor
Win2K Pro
After
1GB Ram
256 Video - ATI Radeon 9550
70 SCSI Hard Drive at 10,000 rpm (+ the 18GB drive as a secondary)
DVD Burner
Dropped the CD Rom and kept the CDRW/DVD Combo
WinXP Pro
