My Computer Systems

Updated: 16 October 2009

Having recently moved house, I’ve finally had a good excuse to downsize the amount of PC kit I actively use - or rather refuse to get rid of on the off-chance it might become useful again:)

I’ll be downsizing some more before adding some shiny new things (some new Windows machines are definitely on the shopping list). The launch of MacOS X Snow Leopard has also made my trusty PowerPC Mac Mini redundant, so that too will be heading out the door to a good home eventually.
