I voted for the first one because I really love it to much.
But I\'m never satisfied,I\'m always upgrading,I always need more/newer/better.

I love it. While it\'s a POS technically, it and the PCs that\'ve come before it have given me TONS of great gameplay hours as well as being an almost indespensible tool for other uses. Right now, it\'s more of a game machine to store and run all my favorite games from the past 12 years, but hopefully that\'ll change after I upgrade sometime in the unforseeable future.

I like my PC, but also hate it as it\'s old.

3 years spent with this computer, wich offers the opportunity to interact with you. Why could I hate my computer? :)

Again, why wouldn\'t I. It crashes, has caused many berserks, and it\'s getting me look cheap.

Tell me I\'m jealous, I don\'t care. But every time another friend of mine gets a newer-than-new computer, it makes me kick my old pal and mutter in frustration: "need more money!".

But, I shouldn\'t worry. I have my ps2 to play with. This to have my internet-surf with.
But Still... I wouldn\'t have nothing against a new computer... ;)

I had my Pentium 133 for 5+ years and just last week I bought a new Pentium4, 1.3ghz.  Needless to say it\'s like a breath of fresh air.  I\'m not into big time gaming on PC.  I mainly use it for photoshop and discrete.  Just couldn\'t handle it anymore with photoshop on my little 133.
I wear a necklace now because I like to know when I\'m upside down.

POS

Yeah well nothing beats my POS computer. Pentium 133, 1 gig hd, 28.8 kbps modem. All it is good for is surfing. But my time will come. Parents say when we do get a new one it WILL BE TOP OF THE LINE. Right now I\'d take anything over this piece of S***!:mad:

I think mine is nice and is in no need of an upgrade, but overall computers today just suck @$$.  Here\'s why folks:

1) They are slow (I\'m talking in general, this includes having dual athlons, etc...)
2) Have incompatibility problems
3) Software is too damn expensive
4) Sh*tty M$ has a monopoly on OS\'s
5) They are too big
6) Too expensive (To own & maintain)
7) A pain to keep up to date
8) Too many useless formats
9) F*CKING SPYWARE & people always trying to sell you something
10) Demand too much of your time
11) Although today\'s society just about requires you have one, no one teaches you how to operate it proficiently.  This is ludicrus for a piece of equipment costing over $1g.  I\'m damn sick of teaching people how to use programs & optimize their setups.  A computer is definitely not for everyone (yet)

You may think I hate computers, but I don\'t.  Making your own CDs, playing games at 1600x1200, downloading free music, and meeting new people from across the world everyday are some of the benefits of owning a computer.  I\'m just saying 50 years from now I really hope we\'ll all be looking back and saying, "Damn!  Computers were really f*ucked up back then, how did we manage???"

Yea tehy are expensive... expecially video cards whats so god about tem, why are they so expensive? I bet GeForcew 3 will be about $700... its so stupid because new video cards come uot all the time who is gonna spend that much money just for a video card?

My computer doesnt even have a video card i bet its so old. My dad is such an ass. "We dont need a new comp"

We donty need one but it freezes about 20 times a day (seriously) its slow as hell, even the internet and we havde cable! The only good game i can play is StarCraft, I have to go to the nieghbors to play Counter-Strike,only 3 gigs.... god what other signs does my dad need to get a new cpu.

Ha! Try this: P1 90 mhz (!), 8 megs of ram originally (recently upgraded to 40 because it needed to have 32 at least to have broadband, don\'t ask me why) , max 640 by 480 resolution, 4 x CD-Rom drive and an enourmous 800 MB hard drive (my neighbor\'s computer has more RAM than that!) Not to mention the monitor is actually from a 91 or something compaq. Hard to believe now but this computer was absolutely top of the line when we bought it. We decided to buy the most expensive one so that we probably wouldn\'t need an upgrade for a looooong time, man were we ever wrong.

Oh. and to answer the question; yes, I love my computer. :D
