Main box - aka. 'Neo'

May or may not get tested on depending on the stability of the OS and what the OS does, e.g. I won't test something like a new hard disk/filesystem driver on it, or something that blew up a PC

• CPU: Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 2.4Ghz
• Motherboard: Asus P5KC - Intel P35 chipset
• Memory: 2GB
• Graphics: nVidia GeForce 8600GT 256MB PCI-E

Test box - aka. 'Morpheus'

I'll test anything on this, providing it won't blow it up.

• CPU: Intel Pentium III 500Mhz
• Motherboard: Uhh, some Dell thing
• Memory: 640MB
• Graphics: nVidia TNT2, not sure how much RAM, AGP
• Network: Realtek RTL8139

Test box 2 - aka. 'Dynamite'

I'll test anything on this, providing it won't blow it up. The name Dynamite comes from the fact it's likely to break at any moment, seeing as it's very old

• CPU: Intel Pentium 100Mhz
• Motherboard: No clue
• Memory: 64MB (upgraded! )
• Graphics: ATI Mach64 AGP, I think 4MB

//UPDATE 05.03.2008
All new is marked with //
Testbed no. 2 -> multiboot 7 systems, added networking (WinNT, Win98, WinXP), added the 3D card, added a nifty case [the PC was "naked"], tried overclocking (switching mutlipleer higher than 5 would cause system crash, setting the FSB higher than 68 MHz would be unstable), added a back up 4 GB disk

Update on my specs!

I now have a Powermac 5500/250 (ie 250MHz PPC beauty), if you have anything you want to test on a PPC you can do so on this machine. Testing networking (read: seeing if the Ethernet card I put in will work) as of this post so you may or may not have networking from the PPC box.

Also, I decided to remove the "music box"'s 2nd HDD, so it just has the one disk for now. I don't know if this machine's HD will be writable in future, but it does (of course) have a floppy in it.

Stay tuned

Update on my specs!

Main:
sempron 2gz
6gb hd ;for testing
40gb hd; don't touch this it wont be available when I test your os
40x cdrom
floppy soon.=]

Development (and some testing):

Acer Aspire 5610Z
* 2gig DDR2
* Intel Dual Core 1.66ghz CPU
* Intel GMA 950 224MB GPU (which is actually fairly good, despite my reservations)
* 120gig SATA HDD
* WXGA screen
* USB controller
* Gigabit Ethernet
* DVD+/-RW driver
* Bluetooth
* Intel WiFi (Not so good, i use a custom Lucent Gold card)
* Realtek Hi-Def audio card
* Synaptic pointing device (touchpad mouse)
* PCMIA (1x)

Test:

Toshiba Satellite S4000CDS
* 3.5" Floppy Driver/FDC
* 6.4gig ATA HDD
* Intel Pentium II 300mhz
* 64meg DDR
* CD+/-RW drive
* 100megabit ethernet
* PS/2 port (for mouse)
* USB controller
* Infared
* 2 PCMIA slots (more than my main laptop XD)
* SVGA screen
* 2 Parallel ports (1 x 25 pin, 1 x 9 pin)

I have an older i486SX laptop that I'm willing to let people test on.

Toshiba T1910:
i486SX @ 33Mhz (No FPU)
An LCD screen capable of VGA resolutions, no colour.
200MB hard drive, currently have NetBSD 1.5.3 installed.. later versions use a different floppy bootloader that doesn't appear to work on it, I have successfully loaded the NetBSD 3 kernel though.
1.44MB Floppy drive.
16-bit PCMCIA slot, with a 14.4K baud modem.. presents itself as a com(4) device under NetBSD, accepts Hayes AT commands. (I'm unwilling to connect it to a telephone line though.)
Trackball mouse with a proprietary connector, appears as traditional PS/2 mouse.

(Early dmesg, 1.5.3.. without the mouse or modem connected...). Tested OS:
MS-DOS 6.22 with Windows 3.11 was originally on the system. (Not anymore.).
NetBSD, several releases.. 1.5.3 being the latest version capable of booting via floppy.
QNX demo disk, I found this rather impressive... it booted successfully, quickly.. and the GUI was very responsive. (A pity it's locked down so tight..).

OS's that won't boot:
MenuetOS.
KolibriOS.
Solar_OS.

You can contact me via the forum or with the yahoo contact information on my profile..

floppy disk (1,44 mb)
dvd drive
cd burner drive
hardisks:
IBM, model "DTTA-351010" at 10,1 GB.
another IBM, with many "bad sectors", but 30 GB , the model is "DTLA - 307030"
