i was just about to fill out the form when i suddenly remembered: i don’t have a single computer that runs windows anymore. work mac laptop, mac mini at home, and 2 old unix laptops. i guess i could upgrade my xp that runs in parallels but i’m too worried it’d blow away the rest of my partitions in the process. i only use it to test sites in obsolete IE versions anyways.

for the curious, the machines are:
- work laptop, macbook pro. i take it home though since the border between work and not-work is sorta vague in my life
- home mac mini. hulu, netflix, bluetooth keyboard that reaches the couch fine. it’s basically the cable box replacement. i just upgraded the ram on it so i should see if it can run games at all, i think i have an xbox controller hooked up to it with drivers installed. i should see what i can do with that
- circa 1999 thinkpad, running ubuntu. it can run terminal just fine, but attempting to run a modern gnome gui causes serious lag. i use it as an always on personal subversion server, and since it sits at work, to show most recent server errors from the logs in streaming format
- circa 2002 sony, running ubuntu. default home laptop, doesn’t run movies too well but is a pretty good machine otherwise. usb wireless since this was the last model laptop to not have a built in wireless card

i don’t have a gaming pc anymore. it’s fine, i don’t really have time to play games enough to justify the investment in one, and when i do game it’s usually just dwarf fortress, eve, or xbox, none of which require a omgwtfsuper pc.

besides, it’s not like there’s any space to put a gaming rig in the apartment. i’m still juggling to find a way to keep my clothes semi-organized
