What processor based systems you have in your workplace (office, laboratory, etc.)?
 
IBM thin clients. 233 or 266 processor, pentium based I believe(some had cyrix!). I find them useless except for basic Word(forget about using graphics in the document), even the internet is painful since it struggles with flash and animation.

Celerons, P4's, K6-2 :eek: , Pentium M, P3, Athlon :D

You should see some of the employee's beg to have the higher end celeron based machines.. lol :D (they are sick of there Compaq Ipaq p3 500mhz. They want the almighty Celeron D 2.4ghz 256mb ram lol )
 
as far as desktops go, our northwood b 2.4ghz machines just came off of lease (dell), so they're gone now. i actually got to take one home for free :) the new machines are 2.8 pentium d's. most of our office is laptops though - either 600m's or latitude d710 with 1.86 pentium m/1gb ram. pretty good hardware for a non-technology company
 
Gateway m250's. 1.7ghz P-M, 512mb ram, combo drives. Servers are all Gateways ranging from dual 1.4 ghz P3s to high end dual 3ghz Xeon machines.
 
In my group (software development) It's mostly dual Xeon 1.8s along with a couple Pentium Ms, a P4 2.8, and a dual Xeon 2.8. Mostly w/ 1GB ram.
Fortunately the dual 2.8 is under my desk :) I was a later hire than the folks with the 1.8s and at the time we didn't have any spare decent machines so I got a new one.

Now the rest of the company isn't so great. They're just now getting around to eliminating Windows 95 machines. I'm not sure on the processors, but the replacements are IBM (or rather, Lenovo) IntelliStations w/ 512MB ram & XP pro. Once that's done we'll have a mix of P3s, P4s, and maybe Celerons running 2k & XP.
