    Yah, I believe I had a similar setup. Only that they decided to get me Win 98 with it, not even XP.

    Why 98? I got it with XP. I used to format the system everymonth and reinstall the OS, to increase the PERFORMANCE.. 🤣🤣

    Yah, remember the time, we used to measure a PC's performance based on the number of times the XP loading bar moved before desktop loaded?

    Oh yeah. I spent most of the time tuning the PC than using it. Funny days.. :p

    Remember the application - SpeedumyPC and bviously, RAM Downloader?!! :lol:

    Ha ha I remembered them all. And the flashy gif ads on websites with Download Ram ...

    Missing downloading more RAM now. 🤣🤣

    LOL! How many times have we been fooled by that.

    Ha ha. Somehow I never fell for that though. I was mad for PCs at that time and read a lot about them. I've been reading about computers since 98 iirc, even though I don't have a computer. I love computers.

    Not for the RAM Downloader. Oh no, never fell for that. But, I did fall for SpeedupmyPC.

    Those are sweet memories.

    The only thing Windows still keeping from those days is the BSOD.

    :lol: And, the thing is they did virtually nothing to fix those BSODs. Instead what'd they do? Redesigned the BSOD page.

    atleast its not the same BSOD anymore!

    LOL! Youa re right. The new design makes it look less threatening and scary :lol:

    Hi @TrK -- Thank You! Having an amazing Christmas over here. Hope yours is just as awesome ❤️

    well apart from lack of sleep it's pretty much good here as well... :smile: i hope you are with your family enjoying the day.

    @TrK -- Plenty of time for sleep later, it's party time! That's the RackNerd way 😎 Hehehe.

    The kiddos are having the best time opening gifts this morning, their excitement makes it all worth it ❤️ These moments are precious.

    Oh yes. These are the rare moments in life that technology just can't capture.

    I like to have them captured all on video.. Hence TBs of data. I want to give them all the childhood memories when they grow up <3

    That's a good dada.

    Dada?

    Dad, father, the same thing.

    KK got it now.. thanks. <3

    Anytime.

    oh wait let me share some domains i hold, securesitelabel, evy9, bizli, dmcaignoredvps, dealsfor.shop, ketli, etc a new addition is ximg

    How much do you end up spending annually just on renewals?

    Didnt ask me, but im at ~$50!

    How many domains is that? And, do you earn enough from these domains to keep those domains and the hosting involved alive?

    Who?

    I think he is replying to all the old msgs.

    Lol why, it just causes more confusion.

    Exactly. It felt like two timelines happening at same time. .🤣🤣

    And it causes more confusion...

    I was confused actually, took me few minutes to realize. :p

    Lol and it took me your comment to realise this....

    Get with the times Trk! We got this figured out now

    Dude so busy commenting, doesn't even have time to check his progress.

    He is just giving all of it

    Yup, he's practically living on the thread.

    Have we been able to convince ourselves at this point that he is NOT an AI? I dont mean to bring that topic back if we have moved on though! Im jealous he can function so well with so little sleep

    Oh, he's just had a lot of practice.

    😂😂 Practice makes it perfect 😉

    Years of practice right here.

    Not the first time for him. he was playing it cool during BF cause he just wanted the iPad.

    That makes more sense now. I didnt recall the race being so close in the BF thread as it is now

    Yup, the loss of the iPad also hurt him Ig. That's why he's going for the laptop aggressively.

    Its his own fault. He should've commented less.. :p

    The deal could have finalised..... Sed.... But let's see what I will do with 450 usd sitting on my RN account.

    You already converted? should've waited a little more?

    Don't have any money left to pay for greedy customs

    May be selling some vps/hosting?

    How was your Christmas everyone?

    Completed the debugging of my projects

    Seems like a good use of christmas!

    I think so as well.

    So ready to launch mystery?

    A lil bit of debugging left. On it right now.

    Backend? what languages you are using?

    PHP, always. Too dumb to go for Python.

    Php is great for web. I use it for work.

    What framework/cms you are using?

    For the blog, WordPress. No other frameworks, just plain old PHP.

    yeah xpress has shwon he is a worthy contendor for you i think. Lets see if it keeps up

    He only has to worry about TrK.

    A computer store near me has this wall of motherboards, so cool.

    And just look at all these Linksys WRT series routers!

    Probably acquired them when someone ran outta business.

    They've been around for a while and love to collect like me, so we get along quite well.

    Ahh, are these on sale BTW, the routers, esp?

    They're mostly for display in the shop, but maybe if I asked really nice.

    Here's my setup for the big RackNerd thread of 2021 :D

    Woah, that's impressive, man. That green lit keybaord an HP Pavillion gaming?

    HP Pavillion.. now that sounds like a throwback. Making me feel old when i hear the words HP echoed now. My how the mightly have fallen. I think its case of them getting complacent.

    Yah, they have gone down a lot.

    Lost the trust with no innovation and high prices, lack of after sales service and it went down the drain.

    The worst was what Dell did to Alienware.

    You need few comments to be in top 25 and over 500 for top 4

    That's gonna change, i.e., multiply exponentially soon.

    It's only gonna harder but who said it's easy to get a laptop?

    Exactly. It's a $850 item. You gotta be able to put in some hard work for that.

    Oh snap, i didnt even look at the value! That is really generous of racknerd and dustin to do this. No wonder its such a hot giveaway

    Yup. It's also the first time that an i& laptop is up for grabs.

    Sure is first those i& are too rare.....

    Yah, What are you gonna do with the i& laptop? :lol:

    Here's my setup for the big RackNerd thread of 2021 :D

    Woah, that's impressive, man. That green lit keybaord an HP Pavillion gaming?

    Yeah that's my 2019 HP 15Z, Ryzen 5 1050ti. Not a bad little rig for $450!

    "Not a bad" is an understatement. That laptop had great thermal management (both hardware and software) for the price it retailed for.

    Oddly enough the reviews from Best Buy said the exact opposite, but I snagged it anyway and mine is excellent still to this day. Probably fixed the cooling issue with a BIOS update by the time I purchased it, I guess the fans weren't kicking in when they should have been?

    I was able to play Cyberpunk 2077 on it with no problems when it released, when people with much higher end hardware were complaining of constant problems, so I was happy with my choice.

    I see, maybe you got one of the very first generations. Pavillion series you own was later famous among gamers for badass thermal management.

    Yeah it seems with every iteration things change ever so slightly with everything from cpus, to cars, to laptops, to pc. hard to keep track of what year is what sometimes and what can be reliable

    Exactly. I guess it's the time for newer startups like Framework to shine.

    Framework laptop is good i approve 👍

    Would love to have one. personally used it before?

    Just another walk in the park for him.

    He's gonna be at 1st he said it, he'll do it

    I have no doubts.

    He deserves the laptop for his hardwork

    SO does anyone who's ready to put the work in. As I say, may the best man win.

    I'll say it again over and over. I am ok without the laptop! I would like that tv ;) You guys and your battle for the top is making it tough! one day i'll make it though. I must not give up my hopes and dreams for they are all i have to keep me going

    That's the RackNerd spirit of never giving it up. Believe me, you could get the TV. We are just 2+ days into the competition.> @Beniskickbutt said:

    TrK is so hyped now, he won't be leaving the first spot for anyone

    Anyone hoping for the laptop needs to grab it from him, but, he's extremely competitive and that's understandable.

    Yeah TrK is approaching this one with an all hands on deck approach. Clearly has his game face on and it shows. Truely a force to be reckoned with. Excited to see how this one endsup

    Pretty sure either TrK or xpress will go home with the laptop.

    May your words come true..

    Oh, it's either of you guys anyways.

    Yah, night owls are known to have weird sleep schedules and coffee addiction.

    I don't have a set prize in mind, as of now. Just hyping the thread up for as long as I can, and then gonna flow with the course.

    Despite not having a set prize in mind, if there was any one you could choose with no contest, which would it be?

    Frankly, the PS5. Being interested in the PS4 Linux scene, a PS5 is something that I've wanted for quite some time now.

    Oh no.. don't come there. :o

    LOL! I was just talking about what I desire. Don't have the time to do that though. Moreover, PS5 games ain't cheap.

    Go go go no openwrt for xpress

    Ha ha. Already installed and running it. Just need some suggested config..

    Install transmission and do torrent

    Had it on NAS. Removed after one drive died. Always felt the Transmission was the reason for my drive failrue in the wdcloud.

    I doubt it was due to transmission, can be something else entirely hard to figure out....

    Cece is like, Dad why did you buy such an expensive laptop? :p

    Babe its to gift our beloved xpress. B)

    :D

    You get the Nitro, you ain't touching my Strix. :p

    Next year maybe, we will have a Strix in the pool.

    If business is good, maybe I'll upgrade and offer up my used one next year in some kinda of raffle. Would be easier to get a used model through customs I imagine!

    What if I shipped it all torn apart, and the winner had to assemble it? :p

    Tearing apart laptop? worst nightmare. :'(

    It's actually fairly easy to reassemble in most cases, unless you don't desolder anything.

    As long as there is no soldering, that would make it way easier

    I'll never buy something with soldered ram

    MacBook? Mac mini? 😂😂😂

    Nope. Thats why I prefer a PC. Most developers I've seen like the MacBook pro though. I do like the looks of it. But non upgradability is meh for me.

    It's upgradable if you get the right tools, right replacement chips and a sure fire way to temper with OS core....

    I think someone who has to work to earn, and spending on MacBook to work, will not have that much time to put that effort. :p

    That's why we see more macs in garbage dump.....

    Thats how Apple earns money.. selling new, dumping old.

    Capitalism at it's peak....

    You like Macs?

    I honestly do.... Especially the OS......

    OS I agree.. its beautiful and functional. Hardware is good too. But they don't want us to own it.

    Hackintosh is the only way.......

    Will try on my new nitro.

    Doesn't work with nvidia cards 😂😂😂

    Inbuild gpu wont work for Hackintosh?

    Damn slow.... Slooooowwwwww.

    Cece is like, Dad why did you buy such an expensive laptop? :p

    Babe its to gift our beloved xpress. B)

    :D

    You get the Nitro, you ain't touching my Strix. :p

    Next year maybe, we will have a Strix in the pool.

    If business is good, maybe I'll upgrade and offer up my used one next year in some kinda of raffle. Would be easier to get a used model through customs I imagine!

    What if I shipped it all torn apart, and the winner had to assemble it? :p

    Tearing apart laptop? worst nightmare. :'(

    It's actually fairly easy to reassemble in most cases, unless you don't desolder anything.

    I am bad at hardware soldered hardware.

    Me as well. I try to stay away as much as possible, but recently I have taken an interest to it

    You soldered anything recently?

    Yup, a router and my Android box.

    Router? what did you solder in that?

    UART. It helps you get shell access to any device that supports it.

    Hells yeah. What router /device is that? I UARTed mine to install OpenWrt on it.

    I just bought an openWrt router, seemed like an easy route but not as fun

    What router is that?

    Openwrt is a router OS

    Wants to know the hardware.....
