RCA 32' LCD television with VGA connection, suspension table stand, HP M9250F with a 2.66GHz processor, 4 GB of ram, a 1 TB Hard drive, Digital and Analog TV turners (will record TV programs too), and 802.11b/g/n wireless LAN and 10/100/1000 Base-T Ethernet. A wireless keyboard and mouse with a 30' range, so I can sit on the sofa.
The drive has 3 partitions with 3 operating systems, the choices being Windows XP, Gentoo Linux, and Ubuntu Linix 8.04 (Beta). Excessive; but oh, what a toy

It doesn't make a lot of sense but that's the way it is. " = inches; ' = feet

Regardless, it sounds like a lovely new toy even if it is larger than most boats

Oh you and my Dh would get along so well.
My Dh made sure that his wife knew how to work computers and such. He has me trained to set up servers for him.

I would have, except I'm not a gamer. My video game phase ended with Donkey Kong.

Nuh uh...might give me away!
Nice setup.
DH and I are sticking with a traditional TV system (ok, traditional means a 50" Samsung DLP HDTV and digital cable) right now. However, we're starting to save up some money for me to rebuild my current home machine. I built it originally in 2003.

Btw, is the processor Intel or AMD? I don't know much about HP's product line.
