Its loud, its fast, it is always inches away from breaking and its used by a certifiable madman. 

 

But on its off days, its more like a Prius.

The gaming rig: Taurus SHO. It's stock, but with a mild boost, it can go pretty quick.

The HTPC: Ford Focus. It's reliable, it works when I want it to, and the parts were pretty cheap.

The old Mac SE: Lada Niva. It's tough as nails, but slow and parts are not readily available for the old boat anchor.

Probably gonna compare it to my actual car being a ford crown vic, it's a bit older but it's still faster than most of the people around me(IRL everyone uses cheap laptops and old pickup trucks in my area)

going to have to say focus ST, its fast, but not the fastest thing in the world. that and because its the same as most office pcs, (I5/8 gigs of ram) with a nice graphics card thrown in, which would be the ST

Most office pcs I know of use i3s and 4GB ram, you sir have a nice office

I wanted to say a Lancia Delta Integrale, but the case is too rounded.

 

 

 

Lancia delta HF integrale ;D 

 

 

Whoa, freaky...

In case the moderators do not ban me as requested, this is a notice that I have left and am not coming back.

SLIGHT PROBLEM WITH THE IDEA...

ALL MODERN CARS ARE WATERCOOLED

But anyways

Vectra 2.2 TD SRI Estate

Fast enough, saves fuel/energy, practical for the price I paid

>.> my desktop.. well i guess it would compare to a pinto, its old and i am pretty sure i could kick it in the back end and it would catch fire. my laptop probably compare to a 2000 toyota corolla. just because it is pretty reliable for what i am doing right now.

Beneath this mask there is more than flesh. Beneath this mask there is an idea, Mr. Creedy, and ideas are bulletproof.

As I get older I get angrier more cynical, meaner. I feel some warning posts coming. I feel a ban coming. I was warned.
