The Phantom and You

DuplexEmotions · 21-May-04, 06:07 PM

I was reading up at HowStuffWorks.com and they had the specs to the Phantom gaming console:

Taken from Howstuffworks.com:

Custom OS on Windows XPe kernel
AMD Athlon XP 2500+ central processing unit
nVidia GeForce FX 5700 Ultra graphics processing unit
NVIDIA nForce 2 Ultra 400 motherboard
256 MB main memory
40 Gigabyte hard drive
Dolby Digital 5.1 Surround Sound
Onboard RF wireless modules
S-Video, RCA or component video connections
10/100 baseT Ethernet
Wireless controller
Wireless keyboard and mouse
Two USB ports
Four controller ports

How does your computer stack up?

I've got it pretty much whipped.

Just need a better video card and a better CPU, though my Duron runs better than a stock 2500+.

I got it on everything except vid card and physically on the CPU although for some reason my computer is currently reading my XP2000 as a 2600. Hmmmm, wonder how that could happen......

Edit: I was expecting this thread to be about Phantom of the Opera....
