Me working on my ENIAC computer. Sorry about the quality, my camera's color seems to have given out recently.

Not gonna update my rig until the 3rd or 4th gen of Intel Ivybridge at least. With the 3D transistor gate being used now, the fabrication process is getting smaller and smaller and more power efficient and faster.

Your computer seems great for a laptop, but that right there means almost nothing today, in 2011, when we have games like Crysis. Just sayin'.
Now for my actual computer (can't get pics atm, I'll edit them in later)(maybe)
By the way, it's just a Dell Inspiron 560 with an amazing graphics card thrown in.

Manufacturer: Dell
Processor:Intel® Celeron® 450 (2.2GHz,512K L2,800MHz)
OS: Genuine Windows® 7 Home Premium, 64Bit, English
RAM: 4gb
Graphics Card: ATI Radeon 4870 HD (Can play just about anything on highest settings, though artifacts in a lot of games,particularly SC2, if the fan isn't set to 40% or higher, and the drivers like to make JC2 crash)
Hard Drive: 500GB SATA hard drive (7200RPM)
Sound Card: Integrated 7.1 Channel Audio up to Creative SoundBlaster® X-Fi Xtreme Audio (D)
Monitor: 20", max resolution of 1600x900
Keyboard/Mouse: Some dell stuff, works well enough for me and I'm too lazy to check what it is.

I think I ended up with a hipster computer, because most of the parts here aren't commonly known and don't show up on most programs that detect them.

It has 6 GB of RAM, 500 GB HDD, and can run all valve games and Halo/Battlefront at 60 FPS. The graphics card is so obscure that Steam has no idea what it is.

CPU: Intel Pentium M 1.6 Ghz
OS: Windows XP Pro, SP3
RAM: 1 GB
