Computing Environment

At work:

My main machine: a Micron PC with 768Mb of RAM, 17Gb + 40Gb of disk, running SuSE Linux 8.0 (kernel 2.4.18-4GB) and Windows NT 4.0 (mostly from inside VMWare).
At home:

My main machine: a 2.5GHz Pentium 4 Gateway 700X with 512Mb of RAM, 80Gb of disk, running SuSE Linux 8.0 (kernel 2.2.18-4GB) and Windows 2000 (mostly from inside VMWare).

My wireless router: Linksys Etherfast Wireless AP+Cable/DSL Router W/4-Port

My KVM switch: IOGear MiniView Compact KVM Switch
On the road:

My new ultra-portable (Libretto replacement): a 800 MHz Pentium III JVC (Victor) Interlink 7210 with 384Mb of RAM and 30Gb of disk, currently still running Windows XP Professional, Japanese edition.

My less portable laptop: a 500MHz Pentium 3 Toshiba Portege 7140 with 192Mb of RAM and either 6Gb of disk when I run Windows, or 40Gb when I run Linux.

The best laptop I have ever had: a 233 MHz Toshiba Libretto 110CT with 64Mb of RAM, 20Gb of disk, running SuSE Linux 7.2 (kernel 2.4.4-4GB) and Windows 98 when I need to make a presentation (or to work on one on the road).
It is now defunct :-(

An old Sager ... with 20Mb of RAM, 512Mb of disk, and not running much lately.
