3 Wishes

[Dogbert]

Imagine that the PC djinni came to you and granted you 3 wishes for your PC

What would they be ?

[PAugustin]

Getting a video card that has the picture quality of Matrox and enough 3D power to play any game or use any 3D app.
But I guess the geni would they that he's under NDA but he'll be able to tell some more soon(r)

[Bohrn]

Mine are pretty simple(well the first one is)

1.) a nice 20 gig hard drive. Its all I need, and it is way bigger than my 3.2 gig that i use now.

2.) a matched set of ram sticks. I just know that some of the wierdness is from these mismatched different age pc133 generics

3.) a nice new monitor. 17" is fine, desk opening is too small for a 19 or 21. But I want a high quality one, and no friggin Trinitron tubes. I hate that line in the middle.

4.)A CDR-W. Yea I know only 3,sorry

5.) I wish that my BX chipset, slot1 motherboard would do faster than approx 1ghz chips.

6.) I want to find a local dealer that will sell me a Phillips Edge series sound card. I can't do "sleep" mode in ME with my Vortex2 card, as it won't wake up. That or some new drivers so it will work.



ps, these are my wife and my 3 wishes combined hehe

Hey Bohrn, if you went about this in a different way, you would still have 2 more wishes. First one should have been a new fully loaded computer.

[Bohrn]

nah, I like my Asus P3B-f board, and my Radeon 8500 as well as alot of the rest of it. Also, I was being quite reasonable in my requests. Not

I want a computer that will be considered fast in 10 years, never crashes and takes 1 sec to boot

3 wishes?

bwahahahaha!

1) I wish that my computer would provide me with absolute, utterly unassailable power over the entire universe.

2) I wish that my computer would never break.

3) I wish that no one but me would ever be able to operate my computer.

Wish number one. I can infinite more wishes.
Wish number two Via get there chipsets right.
Wish number three Microsoft stop writing bloatware and get there bugs sorted out.
Since I've got infinite wishes I can go improving my pc.

Cheating the genie again, aren't we?

Stop that! You'll go blind!

Sometimes I wonder what does this have to do with computers... but then I realize this is the soap box...

[Schattenreiter]

1.) An 22" TFT from Sony *!!mjam!!*

2.) That all my programs (games, whatever) run under BeOS... or rather make it AmigaOS!!!!

3.) Rainbow Runner G for my G400!!!

(...) But I would seriously ask the genie first if the exchange of my PC with an wife+job+house+kids would be an option (all still be missing in my life )

You can buy a new computer anytime!

If I had 3 PC wishes?

I would want a custom made cpu, board ram etc...

I would go to Intel or AMD, then Matrox or Nvidia (and so on) and say that my Djinn will pay you what you need and I want a xxxxGHz 64bit x86 quad CPU system with a board that can handle it and a huge amount of ram etc.. for each of my friends, make that 3 per friend! ( you guys get the idea. ) As for sound, well I definitely need a wisked amp and perfect sounding speakers, a beautiful 60" Plasma display, a DVD writer with a software that gets past every security feature. etc.. etc..

That would be my first wish. hehe

My second wish would be a PlayStation 2 HDD (a huge, fast and reliable drive) and EVERY game made, and every accessory. Oh and about 10 to 15 spare PS2's and PS2 HDD's and triples of every game. (in case of theft or fire) Of course I probably would go into more details and ask for more stuff.

And for my last wish, A cold fusion generator that takes up as much space as a Nintedo gamecube but that can power a small city for 120 years non-stop, and made so strong it never breaks down of course! (oh, it would be static sealed, magnectic sealed, water proof etc..)

With all the electronics, you electricity bill would be expensive!

That's pretty much it, I think I covered a lot of ground without yapping to much! hehe

Wish 1: Bottomless bottle of Rum. (infact if needed, I would sacrafice all three of my wishes for this)
Wish 2: An Athlon XP 2000 processor
Wish 3: A digital camera

Wish 3: A digital camera

In this order? I'd imagine the pictures would be very, um, interesting...

I could live without a digital camera and processor

They aren't essential for life to progress.
