My Hardware

Are you wondering what kind of hardware I am using? Yes, so here is the full list of all the hardware I use with links to their manufacturers' web sites. You will see nothing extraordinary here but just one or two nice devices. My Pentium 4 is my main system and the other is mostly used for application and networking tests. I use the Windows XP's Remote Desktop Connection on my laptop to remotely take control of my main system over my wireless (Wi-Fi) network.
