3Com EtherLink III PC Card

Advantages: good, fast, cheap
Disadvantages: Nothing

...as lasting, after the installation and the installation what both rather quickly and simply went, to this day, had never to open my computer because of this card I it works faultlessly to this day. I use it for my small network, what consists of three computers or if friends come to the gamble to me. Up till now I didn't as said have any problems with it yet and I think I am also absolutely satisfied with their speed who already needs a 1000 Mbit card at home, then? So nothing bad gives to report, I have used it for my DSL once a while, too and it worked and harmonized faultlessly also there, I really only can recommend it if spare one extra card, one of the good manufacturer 3 COM then. ? 3 COM ? 3Com Europe Limited 3Com Centre Boundary Way Maylands Park South HEMEL HEMPSTEAD Hertfordshire HP2 7YU ENGLAND phone: +44 (0)1442 438000 fax: +44 (0...

Advantages: Fun
Disadvantages: None

...Picture the scene. My friends and I (note the good English!) have just finished our A-levels, and have about 3 months free to have some fun. One of your friends parents go away, and he decides to have a party. But this is no normal party, this is a network party!

Advantages: Fast and good for calculation works
Disadvantages: Expensive than AMD

...I had built my computer powered by a Pentium III 500 MHz processor with Abit motherboard. The RAM is 128 MB with a Riva TNT2 32MB graphics card and a 16 bit standard soundcard. The harddisk space is 10GB. This computer is mostly used in my research for performing complex calculations. Until now, the computer have no problem performing it and I could get the results after one minutes. Previously when I am running the calculations on another almost similar computer but with an AMD K6 500 MHz, it performed much slower compared to the system I am having now. My personal opinion on Intel Pentium III chip is nonetheless the best. Thumbs up for Intel but it would be great if the price of the processor can be lowered to match that of AMD.
