So I've seen this around the internet a few places:
If your computer was a car what kind of car would it be?

Computer No.1 for me would be one of those Smart cars.

Its a Sony Vaio VGN-T240P, Centrino package, ULV Pentium-M 1.2GHz, 1GB RAM and gets 9 hours of battery life (100 miles per gallon?). It can do highway speeds....barely...tho I have run Vista Beta on it (sans Glass) and it ran fine.

My other laptop drives more like a Dodge Viper.

Its a brandless beast, Pentium 4 - 660 (3.6GHz), 3GB RAM, GeForce 6800Ultra, 2x60GB stripe raid hard drives...and gets maybe 1 hour battery life (8 miles per gallon??). Plays SH3 really nice tho at 1920x1200. Like the Viper it has a real big engine in a small package, but isnt as fast as a decent modern desktop anymore. I ended up having to go back to using this laptop as my gaming system when I sold my month-old desktop (after driving a Ferrari, a stock Viper isn't so fast anymore

)

So what kind of computers do you guys and gals drive?
