What Kind Of Computer Do You Have?

[Jamie]

I was just curious as to what kind of computer everyone has. We have an HP for a desktop and I have an HP laptop.

What about you?

Dell is better for me.

The label DELL, I feel that is better, it has better service in parts, pieces, is not very expensive.

Compaq with intel pentium 4. Still works
But I have a nice collection of old computers, I hope my wife doesn't discover it....

I've got an HP Pavilion laptop and a desktop that I built with AMD processor about 5 years ago.

My laptop has Windows Vista (just got installed) and it's a HP.

I built my computer as well - and I just upgraded it with 1TB of space the other day, so now it should be able to last another two years, at least when it comes to space.

I run Linux.

What distro? I've been a happy Ubuntu user for over a year now.

The same for me. I'm also using Ubuntu.
On my other two computers I am running Debian, and I'm actually planning to remove Ubuntu on this one, in favor for another distrobution. I'm not sure for which one, but I have considered Fedora. Or maybe, a fresh, bare-bone installation of Ubuntu would be fine too. I just think that the normal, full-version of Ubuntu is too heavy and includes all kind of non-necessary stuff.

distrobution
distribution or distro for short.

Yes, that's true, and that's because it's partially aimed at users who don't have experience with Linux, so they try to be overly helpful.
