During the sem break, the library administration closed the computer labs but they closed it down longer than usual. They didn't renovate the place. They did something better...
They replaced the old computers with flat-screen lcd monitors, brand new CPU's and installed the latest softwares! It's unbelievable. The desks became more spacious without the bulky CRT monitor. Every single key in the keyboard is functioning. They got rid of the non-responsive ball-mouse units. Best of all, the computers are running on a 2.33GHz Intel Core Duo processor with 2GB of RAM and they have a mind-blowing 80GB of disk space. Insane! Installed are the latest version of MS Office 2007 and an Antivirus (If I remember correctly, it's not Norton this time). It was a rare sight to see every computer in an entire lab working properly.
I wonder how long will it take for the students to wreck these new computer units?

P4 2.8ghz? Where did you get that?
Those new computers are running on Core2Duo E4400 2.0ghz processors which is theoretically faster than a 6.0ghz P4 processor (if you overclocked it to that speed). HTH..
and to add... hard drives are now available in quantities up to 1.5TB (1500gb) ... now that's insane... hehe
oops my bad... hehe E4400 yung iba but sa Rizal is the faster Core 2 Duo E6550 2.33ghz and a larger 4mb L2 cache over the 2mb cache of the E4400
