PC ClonesHP m9365
I currently have three desktop PC's, they consist of an HP and a couple of clones
built from parts supplied by Micro Direct, all
the clones are pentium based running Windows XP PRO with 1Gb of Ram. The HP run a Quad-Core processor, 4GB of RAM and 64-bit Vista. This PC has 1TB of storage.
These PC's are all networked, two of them as well as a notebook are
connected via a
KVM Switching Unit.
They all have CD ROM Drives, two have CD/DVD Re-Writers, one caters for Blue-Ray, another has an internal Iomega Zip Drive, I also have an external Zip drive.
USB Key-Drive
This device is very useful, it simply plugs into a USB connector and becomes an extra
drive, they do not require installing on Windows XP systems and a small utility is
available for Windows 98 systems.
They are available in many capacities from 8Mb to 2Gb, the one I have reads data
at just under 1 Mb a second and weighs only 12g.
