Default What do you use to get on MCF?

I'm kind of a computer geek and continue to add to my collection lol

What all do you guys use to access the Monte Carlo Forum or browse the web? Could be a computer, tablet, phone... etc..

Here's what I use:

-HP EliteBook 8560W - Intel i5 - Windows 7 Professional - 4GB Memory - 300GB HDD - Getting Built (32GB Memory - Backlit Keyboard - SSD Booting Drive - etc)

-HP TouchPad - Overclocked to 1.8Ghz - Skinomi Screen Shield - Skinomi CarbonFiber Skin - HP CustomFit Case - HP Bluetooth Keyboard

-Asus Eee PC 900HD - Replaced Screen - 60GB OCZ SSD - Windows XP Professional - Boots in 25 seconds - trying to slim this down

-Samsung Galaxy SIII - White Carbon Fiber Wrap - Ballistic Case

-Samsung Galaxy S - Rooted - Otterbox Commuter Case - Zagg Full Body InvisibleShield

-HTC Sense - Completely Bare - Will be vinyl wrapping and putting an Otterbox on it soon.

-iPod Touch 3rd Gen - 32GB - Also bared - Black Carbon Fiber Wrap in the works.





I also have a 20" Dell monitor for when I'm doing my school work, along with a Logitech gaming mouse - I have the hardest time doing photoshop with the touchpad lol and I have my whole room set-up so that either computer can be displayed on my TV at any time, I like to do this for youtube videos because my TV is hooked up to my Logitech gaming speakers and sounds good for exhaust and all

As you can tell, I have an issue... Post whatever you have and what you've done to them! Computers are what I'll be working with for the rest of my life and I really like to see what people do to them and how they make them 'theirs'.

I could go on about my electronics for days, just because I like electronics that much, but I'll shut-up now, lets see what everyone else has, whether it's a lot or not!

I use a Dell desktop with 2.8ghz and 2 gig of ram and 2 80 gig hdds and a 21 inch monitor. A hp laptop with about the same specs but a little smaller monitor and a Droid 4 that is probably more powerful than both.

I mainly use the MacBook Pro that my high school gave to all the students (everyone got one)



And I also have a 4th Gen iPod Touch 32Gb that I occasionally use to get on the forum
