My simple room PC:

AMD Dual Core 3800+

GeForce 7800 GTX 512 MB

1 GB RAM

0.5 TB storage

17inch LCD

- sound system optical out connected to a P100,000 home entertainment system in my room.

other networked home PCs in my house:

- P4 2.4GHz, Radeon 9800Pro - for testing

- AMD ATHON 550Mhz (OC to 633 Mhz) - file/VPN server - 0.5 TB storage.

This is my simple setup in my room:

For the sounds:

Pioneer surround speakers, 120watts RMS front/center & 100 watts RMS back) – P21,000

Yamaha subwoofer, 120 watts RMS – P20,000

Pioneer D811 receiver/amplifier, 100 watts RMS/channel – P24,500

Others:

29 inch HD TV (room use only) – P50,000

Pioneer DVD Player (DivX capable) – P5,000

PC connected to sound system via optical cable – P40,000 (LCD, dual core, nVidia GTX)

Note: The Yamaha subwoofer is not recommended if your in an apartment or a room is next to yours, else the people next to ur room will surely call the police….

I have in my control about 700 workstations, about 40 servers, alot of sites. I'm already planning to migrate most of my servers to Linux this year, and hopefully in 1-2 yrs all the desktops. M$ Windows is just too much expensive, specially the M$ Office, thats why we are using OpenOffice.

buying Digital Cameras really comes to how much you can afford, but I strongly recommend the IXUS brands from canon... it has alot of addons, like for diving u can buy a case so u can use it underwater. If ur in a tight budget, I recommend Olympus FE-115 (5MB 2.8 Optical Zoom), good quality but very cheap.
